The reason for that could be what's the point of all that expense,buy a £200 car drive around with no tax,no ins and no mot.Chances of getting caught are minimal,and if they are caught,get banned for 18mths,and have taken off road,so they wait for two weeks then buy another car.

I’m considering leasing a van next time, 3/4 year contract, road tax included, all Imhave to do is put fuel in and insure it, and a service once a year. All breakdowns would be covered by warranty. Yeah it would cost be c £230/250 pm, but considering what I would pay on a personal,loan for a used vehicle, and still have to pay tax and repair costs, it would balance out. The current van is 9 years old this year, only worth half what I paid for it, less than a year ago, and has cost me in excess of £1200 in repair costs in the first 7 months of ownership. So never again will I buy a vehicle for business. Once the current car is paid for, I will,look into a lease vehicle as it’s replacement.

Do van leasing contacts have the same very limited mileage restrictions, say 6,000 miles a year, that most of the car leasing agreements have ?

usually you set the mileage limit at start of the contract, so if you want more tjan what is stipulated, you pay extra per month, so yes but usually 8/10k per year
