About Flexible Car Lease
Flexible Car Lease is a trading style of Cocoon Vehicles Limited, an FCA-authorised vehicle rental and leasing company based in Derbyshire and incorporated in 2007. It offers rolling month-to-month car subscriptions, fixed short-term leases of 6 to 12 months and short-term hire from 90 days, for both cars and vans. These sit between a traditional three-to-four-year lease and daily rental.
Most agreements include routine servicing and maintenance, road tax, the manufacturer's warranty and breakdown assistance. Insurance is not included. Customers must arrange their own fully comprehensive cover and pay for fuel or charging. The site says initial payments are lower than on a typical lease and that there are no hidden fees, but it does not publish prices, mileage allowances or notice periods. These are set out in the contract terms you receive when you apply.
The service is aimed at private drivers and businesses, including firms with fleet needs, new start-ups and people relocating to the UK from abroad. Brands shown on the site include Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Volvo, Land Rover, Kia and Toyota. Because insurance is excluded, compare the total cost against all-inclusive subscriptions before you commit.
