What happens after my lease agreement has expired?expand_more
During the lease term, you are granted the right to use the vehicle in question according to the leasing conditions agreed. The vehicle remains the property of the lease provider (Cembra Money Bank AG). After the lease agreement has expired, the lease provider normally returns the vehicle to the supplier (garage owner/car dealer) at the contractually agreed upon return value (corresponds to the amount stated in the lease agreement). The supplier can then sell the vehicle and therefore re-determine its price. Should you like to acquire the vehicle you leased after the agreement has expired, you have to contact the supplier.
