Contract Hire News – Tennis ace chooses Mercedes-Benz
With rather more important things on his mind in recent years, like becoming the UK’s no 1 men’s tennis pro, Contract Hire News were not surprised to learn this week that Andy Murray has only just got around to taking his driving test.
Having decided that he could no longer rely on his girlfriend to chauffeur him, albeit in the Mercedes-Benz sports coupe that the 22-year old Scot gave her to replace the Ford Ka she previously owned, Murray undertook a two-week intensive driving course after bowing out to Andy Roddick in the semi-finals at Wimbledon last month.
The world no 3 passed with flying colours on his first attempt, having made only two minor errors during the test.
Contract Hire News understands that people taking their driving tests in Britain can make up to 15 minor errors and still receive a pass. With most people who pass making an average of 9 errors, Murray’s performance was near perfect.
It is not know whether Murray bought the Mercedes-Benz outright or is leasing it on contract hire. However, now that Murray is in possession of his own full UK driving licence he can take advantage of City Vehicle Leasing’s outstanding contract hire rates on Mercedes-Benz cars.
Perhaps a GL-Class like fellow sportsman Lewis Hamilton, who drives the luxury SUV when he’s not on the racetrack.
Or may a Mercedes-Benz SLR like rival, world no 1 and six-times Wimbledon Champion Roger Federer, who has just topped his momentous victory on Centre Court by becoming a father for the first time following the birth of twin girls.
Thankfully though you do not have to be a world-class sportsman to afford a Mercedes-Benz car. City Vehicle Leasing’s substantially discounted contract hire rates means a brand new Mercedes-Benz car could be more affordable than you ever dreamt possible.
Prices start from £186 (plus VAT) for a Mercedes-Benz A150 BlueEfficiency Classic SE 3 door manual on business contract hire and £207 (inc VAT) for the same model on personal contract hire. For more information and a personlised written quotation call City Vehicle Leasing on 0844 375 3263.
