About Us
Cocoon Vehicles was established in 2007 by a group of ex-dealership Dealer Principals, Marketing Managers and Fleet Sales Executives to provide a “dealership” style service via the phone but more importantly the internet.
Cocoon originally started as a vehicle broker via funding houses and dealerships to supply customers with cars and vans directly from dealerships.
When the 2008 recession kicked in and even the large corporates with healthy credit scores were getting declined.
So we went out there and used our own money and some credit lines to buy 5 x Audi A3’s, we wrote all new ‘Short Term Car Lease‘ business on our own books and leased these cars out for periods of 6 and 9 months, when they were returned, we’d refurbish them if needed and put them back out for another 6 months.
We have grown our Short Term Car Lease Fleet over the years, with the vehicles out to major corporate companies, Small to Medium sized businesses and even some individuals. We also specialise in New Start Businesses and Non-status customers.
Other Services Offered by Cocoon
As a contract hire and leasing specialist, we still offer a wide range of 24, 36 and 48 month contract hire and leases, we also now offer the Find a Car Lease service where we do the hard work of finding a cheap car lease deal for you.
Of course we still do 24/36/48 month traditional contract hire and leasing, with no less than 12 funders to tap into, we are competitive in the market place. Click Find a Car Lease for more information.
If you’re looking at buying a new car or commercial vehicle then before you head down to the dealer, give the team here a call. We’ve got terms and relationships in place with the majority of the vehicle manufacturers and can sometimes tap into deals that aren’t readily available.
