Why a car subscription is a good deal
Buying a car costs a lot of money. A lot. Either it empties your bank account in one go, or you have the spectre of finance hanging over you for months, if not years. And all the while, your pride and joy is depreciating, eventually leaving you out of pocket.
When you put it like that, buying a car is a pretty expensive decision. But we all need to get from A to B, so what are the options?
Well, you could hire a car. But again, you’ll be paying a premium for the privilege. And with a hundred and one caveats, you could find yourself locked into a contract that costs you more than you think.
At MOOV by Al-Futtaim, we've come up with an alternative, and it's a pretty good one. A car subscription is the modern way to have all the benefits of owning a car without any of the headaches. Here's why.
1. It’s cheaper
A car subscription means you get to pick and choose exactly how much your car costs you every month. Depending on the model, the subscription package, and other factors such as your monthly mileage allowance, a car subscription can work out much cheaper than hiring or buying (even if you go for a pre-loved model). More money in your pocket means more miles and more smiles.
2. It’s easier
One monthly payment. That's all you need to think about (although if you're unfortunate enough to get a speeding ticket or toll charges, you'll be billed separately for those). That single payment means you can budget your finances efficiently. You sign up, choose your car, and it's delivered to you. That's literally all there is to it. Enjoy the freedom of the open road knowing you're insured and covered for any breakdowns.
3. You can change your mind
This may sound like a standard lease agreement, but a car subscription has one crucial difference – you can change your mind. If you fancy swapping from a little city run-around to a crossover SUV or something more sporty, you can at the end of the month. And then change back at the end of the following month if you want. The whole point about a car subscription is that it puts you back in charge of your motoring, giving you the flexibility you want from a deal that suits your budget. As long as you’ve cleared all the outstanding dues on the current subscription, you can change your mind as often as you want.
4. We’ll take care of the services
Rather than ringing around garages to get your car booked in for a service, we'll take care of it. You'll notice a sticker on the driver's door when you pick up your vehicle. This tells you the mileage at which the next service is due. Call us as soon as you hit that number, and we'll arrange with you to get the vehicle serviced.
5. Flexible subscriptions from one to 18 months
You'll find a range of car subscription packages on offer, but ultimately it's all up to you how long you subscribe and when you want to cancel. As long as you let us know in plenty of time, there are no penalties for terminating your subscription (although we'll be sad to see you go!).
With so many benefits to a car subscription, the question is, why aren't you doing it already? Contact one of our friendly team, and we'll get you MOOVing with a simple, practical and budget-friendly car subscription today.
