WHAT SORT OF PAYMENT PLANS DOES MINI OFFER?

MINI Financial Services offers three easy ways to finance your next MINI. These include; EASYPAY, ULTIMATEPAY, and PAPERLESS.  If you already own a MINI, head to the Owners? Lounge to set up your preferred method of payment for your MINI Financial Services account.
EASYPAY – Set-up automatic, recurring monthly payments, so you can concentrate on motoring instead of writing checks and finding stamps.
ULTIMATEPAY- If you know you’ll be traveling, use UltimatePay to schedule a one-time payment to be made on a specific date.
PAPERLESS – This tree-friendly option delivers an email letting you know when your Account Statement is posted online.

MINI LEASE PROGRAMS

The MINI you want. When you want it. When you lease, you pay only for the MINI you use during the lease. With an overall financial commitment and come of the industry’s most competitive leasing programs, MINI Financial Services helps you save money. You will be able to drive home in the MINI of your dreams, with all the options and accessories you want.

THE MOTORING LEASE

Want to drive your MINI 5,000 miles? 50,000? 500,000? The Motoring Lease might be the ideal option for you. With the Motoring Lease, you tell us how many miles you’d like to lease your MINI for, and we’ll come up with a plan that fits your specific needs. Plus, since leasing doesn’t require the same cash commitment as other options, you could use the money and miles you have on hand to break in your new MINI on a cross-country jaunt.

THE TRADITIONAL LEASE

One of the best things about this lease is the flexibility it provides. If, at the end of your lease, you’re bored of your first MINI’s color or just feel like it’s time to start seeing other MINIs – no problem. You can even structure your lease according to your individual needs. If you have a limited down payment or no trade-in, leasing allows you to motor with reasonable monthly payments.

MILEAGE ADJUSTMENT PROGRAM

In a MINI, it’s easy to lose track of the miles. That’s why our Mileage Adjustment Program helps you avoid lease-end excess-mileage charges without obsessing over the odometer.
    • You can buy up to 100,000 miles, including the amount of miles at lease inception.
    • Additional miles can be purchased at any point up until the vehicle is returned.
    • Vehicles returned with over 100,000 are billed at the standard lease end rate.
