Lease car delivery
Discussion
I have been following a few of the lease threads on PH and understood it to be normal that the mileage allowance starts once the vehicle is delivered to you so the 250 should NOT be deducted from your total. I would certainly be rather unhappy if this was the case for my own lease car
Certainly wasn't for me, my contract stated that mileage was recorded on delivery and that my allowance started from when delivered to me. When delivered to home the delivery driver recorded the mileage (albeit only 8 miles) and my allowance started from that point.
The allowance should start from when you get your hands on the car.

My original quote for the car stated:
All the above rentals and charges are Inclusive of VAT at the prevailing rate. There are no additional charges – This price includes delivery, driven to anywhere in the Mainland UK.
And they aren't charging you for the delivery. That's not the question.All the above rentals and charges are Inclusive of VAT at the prevailing rate. There are no additional charges – This price includes delivery, driven to anywhere in the Mainland UK.
If he/she goes 250 miles over the allowance then they are charging.
The contract should start with the miles the car is delivered with.
In my old one the 250 miles would have necessitated it needing a service. It was delivered on a transported so when it went back it was just short of me having to service it.

Mine came from Alphabet (BMW) and was delivered from 150 odd miles away in a covered transport with 10 miles on the clock.
The delivery guy said Alphabet insist on this.
I must admit I was much happier with this than it being brought by a delivery driver although that wouldn't be a deal breaker for me.
