At Mercedes‑Benz we believe a great driving experience
should be matched by an equally great ownership
experience. That is why we put just as much thought, time
and effort into designing our finance options, our service
plans and our insurance cover as we do into our vehicles.
Over the next few pages you can read about the products and services we offer,
and see just how cost-effective and hassle-free they can make owning and
running a Mercedes‑Benz.
If you would like to find out more about any of our current offers, simply call into
your local Mercedes‑Benz Retailer where one of our Finance Specialists will be
more than happy to talk you through anything you need to know.

Mercedes‑Benz Operating Lease
Operating Lease is a solution for those who want to drive one of
our vehicles over a fixed term, with lower monthly rentals and
without the worries or commitment of ownership.
Features for both personal and business users:
How does Mercedes‑Benz Operating Lease work?
• Fixed regular monthly rentals means you can easily budget

Mercedes‑Benz Service Care
Keep a tight grip on your monthly servicing costs.
As well as putting you in control with flexible finance options,
you can also take full control of your routine servicing costs.
Service Care is an affordable way of spreading the cost of servicing at a
Mercedes‑Benz Retailer by offering fixed competitive monthly payments.
Parts and labour costs are fixed for the next two, three or four services, and by signing
up to a simple plan you can relax in the knowledge that all your routine service costs
and any recommended items such as spark plugs, air filters and screen wash are
taken care of.
By choosing Service Care you can:
•Guarantee the price that you pay today is the price for the next two, three or four
services, so your payments won’t increase even if inflation does
•Fix your monthly costs making it easier for you to budget by enabling you to
spread the cost of servicing
•Match the length of the service plan to the length of your finance agreement
•Relax, knowing that, if you have the option to return your car at the end of your
finance agreement, the servicing has been carried out to the standards set by
your agreement
