September already and has anybody noticed that some of the leaves on the trees have started to turn, ready for autumn? Not only did the leaves change, but on the 1st September we saw the release of the ’75 plate’ vehicles and we’re excited to show off some of our favourite additions to our flexible car subscription fleet and our short-term car lease offerings.
Here are a few of our favourites:
Car Subscription September Favourites

Subscribe to a Mini Countryman
Wow! Has the MINI Countryman been a popular vehicle on both our flexible car subscription and short term car lease service. We've got these in-stock and a lot more coming through in some amazing colours including: Slate Blue, Midnight Black, Legend Grey, Smokey Green and British Racing Green.

Subscribe to a BMW 1 Series Hatchback
The BMW 1 Series Hatchback is back in stock and available, another popular vehicle and this time we've got the 120 M Sport with and without the pro pack available. The engine is super responsive, yet very good on fuel economy, inside expect BMW's curved infotainment system with Satellite Navigation, Apple CarPlay and a Mild Hybrid system.

Subscribe to a BMW X7 Estate
As SUV's go, the BMW X7 is big. 7 Seats; with the third-row seats big enough for Adults (and they have ISOFIX), a very impressive Mild-Hybrid Diesel Engine which is super economical for a vehicle this big and luxury features that you'd expect from this German marque. Again full of kit with head-up display, heated front seats, panoramic sunroof, what more could you ask for? One of the best cars to take on a car subscription to beat residual value drops.

Subscribe to a Volkswagen Golf eHybrid
For those who just cannot make the jump from ICE to fully electric vehicles, the eHybrid Golf is a Plug-in Hybrid and is great for those opting for a company car or a salary sacrifice (yes, you can take a plug-in hybrid on salary sacrifice).The latest VW Golf is excellent, fixing the bugs we disliked from the old infotainment system and drives like a Golf should.

Subscribe to a Mercedes-Benz EQA
You must subscribe to a Mercedes-Benz EQA to understand what an impressive job MB has done to the GLA to electrify it. Fantastic range and easy charging. We've got these available as the Urban Edition and the AMG Line Premium Plus, which one would you choose and why? We'd opt for the Urban Edition due to the price point!

Subscribe to a Skoda Karoq
Another customer favourite is the Skoda Karoq, available on a short-term car lease or one of our vehicle subscriptions, in either Automatic or Manual gearboxes. These cars are super comfortable to drive and has a great specification. There is plenty of room for the family and the kids will love the tray tables in the back, in fact so do the adults.

Subscribe to a Land Rover Defenders
Land Rover really went for it when they produced this Land Rover Defender, loyal fans didn't want to see the change but it has made a huge impact in the car industry. Our customers love them and running a LR Defender on a car subscription is an ideal way to get a taste of the good stuff. We've got both the passenger vehicles and the commercial hard-tops available, we've even got some plug-in hybrids. So its time you made the pivotal decision!
