tax-free, short-term leasing

Bonjour La France has teamed with Ideamerge, creators of the website Moto Europa: Online Guidebook and One-stop Shop for European Motor Travel, to offer you an online way to learn more about and perhaps subsequently order a tax-free, short-term auto lease. These leases can be great deals for persons traveling 17 days or more! and this is the only site on the web where you can learn so much about them and order securely online. (Of course you can order by phone as well. See the Ideamerge contact info below.)

Choose from a wide range of brand-new Renault vehicles, and from pick-up and drop-off sites located across France, in Italy, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Switzerland, Amsterdam and, yes, London. (Though the steering wheel will be on the left, as is standard on the continent, this is legal in the British Isles and commonly found there and shouldn't pose much of a problem.)

qualifications and benefits …

Persons who can claim legal residence outside the European Union qualify for a tax-free, short-term (17-day minimum) auto lease. Tourists qualify for up to 175 days. Students, trainees, members of the teaching profession, journalists or employees undertaking a clearly defined mission in Europe and not normally residing in an European Union country perhaps qualify for up to 360-days. Simply put, the lease plan is designed for visitors.

The longer you expect to have a vehicle in Europe, the better deal such a lease will be compared to renting. In fact the tax-free, short-term leasing deal may seem too good to be true—but it is true! Last year some 28,000 people worldwide realized this fact.

But don't just take our word for it. We welcome you to peruse these relevant comments from customers and from Consumer Reports. There's also the Moto Europa chapter tax-free, short-term leasing. Here's a summary of the benefits detailed in those reports:

  • You get a brand-new factory-fresh vehicle and unlimited kilometers (miles).
  • You pay only the one small set price, essentially the difference between the buying and selling prices.
  • There are no hidden or last-minute charges.
  • You pay no value-added tax. (This tax—ranging up to 20 percent and more—must be paid on all vehicle rentals in Europe.)
  • You pay no airport pick-up/drop-off tax.
  • You get the full factory warranty.
  • Complete zero-deductible insurance is included...
  • as is 24-hour toll-free English-speaking phone assistance...
  • and 24-hour roadside assistance from Renault's 17,000 service agents Europe-wide. (See details on all these via link below.)
  • The vehicle is insured in many more countries than would be a rental: Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Monaco, Morroco, Netherlands (i.e. Holland), Norway, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, St. Marin, Sweden, Switzerland, Tunisia, Turkey, Vatican, Yugoslavia. (This list is accurate as of 1 August 1999 but is subject to change.)
  • No charge for additional driver if he/she is your spouse or life-companion.
  • Sure and cheaper way of getting automatic transmission and air conditioning. Availability of these options with rentals is still rare in Europe.
  • Sure way of getting a high-fuel-economy diesel vehicle. (Diesels in Europe cost half as much to fuel as their gasoline-powered counterparts.)
  • No maximum customer age; and a minimum age of 18 years (if you've had your driver's license for at least one year). Rental companies, in contrast, may require customers to be no older than 70 years, and at least 23, or even 25.
  • Ease of picking up a car in one country and returning it in another with fewer complications.
  • insurance, warranty and assistance …

    The insurance—consisting of civil liability, non-deductible comprehensive, collision, theft, vandalism, fire, and act-of-God coverage—and the factory warranty are air tight. Likewise the assistance program is remarkably comprehensive and very well structured. All these are included in the one set price. To review them all in detail click here.
