The employee enters into a leasing agreement between himself/herself and the finance company for the provision of a vehicle. The employee, employer, and the finance company enter into a Full Novation Agreement under which the employer agrees to take on the responsibility of paying the finance company on behalf of the employee.
The lease payments and vehicle running costs are paid from the employee’s pre and in some cases post – tax remuneration to our approved Fleet Management Company, so long as the lease is Novated. The approved Fleet Management Company then pays the finance company and suppliers on behalf of the employer and the employee, so long as the lease is novated to the employer.

What do you hear/know about the Skoda brand dyan sa Australia? Good quality and service ba? One site in UK awards this as small car winner (http://awards.whatcar.com/small). If for brand new small car, what would you go with?

I would take my time buying from a direct seller, but yes I'm sure from a dealership there is warranty or guarantee that what you buy from them is not a lemon

Meron akong nagustuhan na 2015 suzuki swift glx navigator automatic na suma tutal $19,400 ung kelangan i-finance (tapat na presyo na after dagdag upgrades and bawas ung downpayment)
nagquote sakin na na-approve ung in-house financing kaso nung nagcompute nako pumatak na mga $7,380 ung ibabayad ko in total sa interest, ang tanong ko sana e kung katanggap tanggap ba sya?
salamat and pasensya na sa overwhelming details.

regarding naman sa dealer price, may nakausap akong pinay na nagtatrabaho as manager sa bank sabi nya (ewan kung nagyayabang lang) tumawad ka daw agad ng aud5k sa price. pag di pumayag, alis ka daw agad. ganyan daw ginagawa nya dun sa 3 cars na nabili nya at nakatawad sya ng 3k ~ 5k. tas bibili ka daw pag malapit na ang end of month kasi dyan yung time na nagpe-prepare na sila ng sales report at pag di sila aabot ng quota, advantage para sayo yun kasi ibabagsak nila (sales agent) ang presyo para lang maabot ang quota.
madami naman dealers dyan kaya try mo rin magtanong-tanong baka makabawas ka sa ibang dealers.

last march nag-promo ang hyundai, 19,990 driveaway with free auto. nagbasa-basa ako ng review tapos nagpa-sked ng test drive. After ng test drive sabi ko may appointment pa kami sa toyota (pero wala naman talaga).
Humirit yung ahente ano daw pwede nya gawin para di na kami pumunta sa toyota. Sabi ko pwede mo ba palitan ng alloy mags yung steel wheels? Hindi daw. I-free mo nalang yung metallic paint? (plus 500 din kasi). Pumayag. Sa accessories naman, tint lang kinuha ko (added $450, orig price $500).
So ayun, nakuha ko ang oto at 19,990+ tint 450. Pagtingin ko sa resibo nakalagay 5800 discount. Meron pa kasi ibang fees at charges tulad ng stamp duty, dealer delivery, rego, etc. Kaya mas maganda magtingin ng driveaway, no more to pay na price.

itago natin sa pangalan ang company na "LINUK"
nakakuha ako tawag galing sa kanila naapproved daw finance ko tapos naorder na yung sasakyan ayon sa sales agent
sunod nung araw na bago delivery 2 days nagrequest na sila documents saken kagaya nang bank statements, payslips, employment contract (nabigay ko na 1 month ago) at character references na hindi nakatira sa same address
one day bago delivery tumawag ulet ang company na nagaasikaso nang finance na nireject daw payslip ko kasi generic daw
hiningi yung company ABN at BSB pati acct nang kumpanya
binigay ko direct email nang amo at siya mismo nagprovide nung ABN, bsb at acct # kung saan nakukuha namin payroll
tanong ko lang:
may sitwasyon bang ganito na naprovide mo lahat nang necessary documents tapos bigla bago arwa nang delivery sabihin sayo na hindi mo pwede kunin sasakyan kasi ayaw pumayag nang finance?
sunod ang sabi saken kausapin daw ako nang amo or boss nung finance para sa options ko
na hindi ko alam kung ano yung iproprose na options pero kung may nakakaalam baka pwede makakakuha sana advise.
pangatlo 1 day palang yung pinirmahan kong contract at walang pirma dun sa baba yung finance at nakalagay subject yung customer to decline anytime to decline the offer once na nadisapprove yung credit
tanong dito sa last papaano madidecline yung credit kung una palang naapprove finance sunod naorder sasakyan andon na rehistro at ready na lahat lahat nakakabit na din yung mga add ons na pinili ko plus yung clear coating sa sasakyan.
sana may makatulong maraming salamat

ok naman sa dealer as long as maprovide mo lahat nang necessary documents at saka requirements nila usually ang tatawagan diyan yung amo mo sa office or company nyo magtatanong sila ng mga specifics tungkol sa employment mo once nasatisfy yun makukuha mo brand new yung kotse.
