Unfortunately not. You are unable to use a leased vehicle for "Hire & Reward" purposes as this is not permitted by the funder. This includes Taxi, Chauffeur, Driving Schools and Rental companies. 

Some funders may also have additional restrictions in place for customers who work in the Motor Trade. Please contact one of our Leasing Consultants for further information regarding this.
