Nationwide Vehicle Contrasts Improve Customer Service By Opening At Weekends

In a bid to make life easier for their many customers, one of the UK’s largest car leasing companies has decided to open at weekends, to add to its existing weekday service. Nationwide Vehicle Contracts are now able to provide the finest deals on the very latest cars on Saturdays and Sundays between 10 am and 4pm.

NVC are committed to providing the finest customer service, and have made the switch to weekend working because they recognise that many of their clients have more time on Saturdays and Sundays than they have during the week. Nationwide know that deciding from their many superb cars isn’t always an easy matter, so the decision-making process can now be a more leisurely one.

As might be expected from a major player in the leasing industry, Nationwide Vehicle Contracts have an enormous range of cars on their books. From smaller superminis lease deals such as the superb Kia Picanto and the highly acclaimed Peugeot 107 to larger SUVs like the award-winning Porsche Cayenne and the ultra-tough Nissan X-Trail and deals such as Volvo contract hire.

In recent years, leasing a car has become more and more popular, and it’s easy to see why. Choosing this option makes financial management far easier to organise in the coming years, because the driver will know monthly outgoings in advance, and of course will not have to find a major initial outlay. By becoming available at weekends, NVC’s experienced and knowledgeable staff members will now be on hand to explain the benefits throughout the week.

One of the reasons for the company’s high profile within the industry is the combination of low prices and tempting special offers, which has proved particularly attractive in the past few years. Nationwide Vehicle Contracts have always had a strong commitment to matching quality with value, and their highly impressive Price Match Challenge is an especially good example.

NVC recognise that making a decision about leasing a superb new car isn’t always the responsibility of a single person, so their weekend opening will come as particularly welcome news to couples and families. Now everyone can join in the debate about the best options, and of course with Nationwide’s friendly experts on hand to offer guidance making the right choice has never been easier.

Having established themselves as one of the largest and most proactive car leasing specialists, Nationwide Vehicle Contracts see their weekend opening as evidence of their belief in the importance of customer service. It’s also a hugely impressive indication of their commitment to the future of their business.

‘Road Sense’ Motoring Safety Campaign Introduced by Carrentals.co.uk and Brake

Carrentals.co.uk, the leading car hire comparison website which helps people book cheap hire from up to 50 top providers, announces its sixth ever ‘Road Sense’ campaign. The campaign, in partnership with road safety charity Brake, seeks to raise awareness of motoring safety issues among drivers of all ages.

The annual Road Sense campaign focuses on a key element of motoring, with this year seeing the initiative being consistent checks on tyres, brakes and engine as the winter weather sets in. Carrentals.co.uk and Brake are calling on motorists to get these vital checks carried out no matter what the impact on their household budget.

Gareth Robinson, Managing Director of Carrentals.co.uk, comments: “We are calling on drivers around the UK to be aware of the need for getting brakes and tyres checked regularly, particularly as the UK’s roads turn icier.

We all need to pull together to improve the situation and lower the amount of serious accidents.”

Katie Shephard, director at Brake, says: “We enjoy working with companies like Carrentals.co.uk who seek to push the road safety agenda through initiatives Road Sense. Throughout this year’s Road Safety Week we at Brake want young people to become increasingly aware of the importance of driving sensibly and to ‘have a heart at the wheel’.”
