Once upon a time, many years ago, Blackburn in Lancashire was literally a boom town and the most rapid growth in the history of the town was at the start of the Industrial Revolution when good old Blackburn was one of the first industrialised towns in the world. This of course was due to textile manufacturing and many, many years before car leasing came into being.

It follows then that the descendants of those innovative people many years ago should inherit the spirit of what made Blackburn great as the town has a higher than average amount of people who prefer to lease their new cars instead of buying them.

Now we think that?s a good idea as there are some compelling arguments for car leasing compared to purchasing a car by giving a dealer what may amount to most or all your liquid cash, or worse still, via purchasing the car on hire purchase where you have large amounts of interest to pay every month.

With car leasing whether you live in Blackburn or anywhere else, all your servicing costs and road taxes are met under the terms of the lease, so you have little or nothing else to pay out for apart from car insurance and fuel.

This all applies both to private and company car lessees but businesses leasing cars have the added advantage of being able to put a proportion of their monthly repayments against tax.

So when you consider all the above please give a thought to leasing your next car instead of buying it.
