Dear reader, The company car market – and by extension that of mobility – is in constant flux. LeasePlan approaches this trend with a dynamic and proactive strategy by introducing new and innovative services. We are currently on the threshold of something big. At LeasePlan, we know better than most that your mobility needs today will undoubtedly differ from your mobility needs tomorrow. We continue to look forward to meeting your mobility needs of tomorrow. Only in this way can we create added value. This is also where our expertise lies and we do it with both professionalism and passion. Electric vehicles, car sharing, ride sharing… What's next? As the market leader, we deliver services in 32 countries. And thanks to our extensive market knowledge we are well qualified to conduct analyses of the automotive market. The CarCost Index is a prime example. But we have even more in store for you in this issue of Intentions. As a driver, you may sometimes have questions about your lease car. We provide the answers in an absorbing article. Your lease car from A to Z, from receipt to end of contract. At the end of the journey, you take leave of your company car. But that doesn't mean the end of the road for the car. In our industry, we call this car remarketing. We take you behind the scenes of the second-hand car market, a huge logistical machine with a lot going on. And Intentions just wouldn't be complete without taking a close look at a car-related topic. This time we've set our sights on the ultimate growth segment: SUVs and crossovers. There are many great things on the horizon in this area, so keep the shortlist close at hand!
Pleasant reading!

Low-emission zones spreading in Flanders In the previous issue of Intentions, we informed you about the low-emission zone (LEZ) that had been introduced in Antwerp's city centre and part of the Left Bank. Meanwhile, the city of Ghent has also announced that it will be following suit in 2020. The LEZ in Ghent will correspond to the 30-kilometre-per-hour zone in the city centre, i.e. the area within – but not including – the R40 ring road, and excluding the Nieuwewandeling-Blaisantvest axis and the entry and exit roads to the Gent Zuid car park. This is in addition to the news that the city of Mechelen will also be introducing an LEZ in the course of 2018. An LEZ banishes the most polluting vehicles, such as older diesels and very old petrol cars, from urban areas. This depends on the

• Keep the car clean. This will prevent damage to the paintwork. • Adhere strictly to the manufacturer's maintenance instructions. This can help avoid discussions in the event of technical issues. • For the specific regulations in your company, you should refer to your employer's car policy.
Can I drive my LeasePlan car to and in other countries? Yes, you can. You are advised to check whether the country you are visiting is listed on your green card and whether you will need any special papers, such as a customs certificate. You will probably find more information about this in your employer's car policy.
Can I use my company car when I'm ill or taking a career break? The answer to this question depends on the type of leave and whether you retain the right to salary while you are off. Personal use of a company car is tied to receiving salary so you will only need to return

tyres in particular wear out quickly at higher temperatures and they also increase fuel consumption. Where can I go to get my tyres changed or repaired? • Tyre change The details of the tyre centre where your summer or winter tyres are stored can be found on My LeasePlan. Surf to www.leaseplan.be/myleaseplan. • Tyre repairs Contact our Driver Services staff on 078 150 600 or by e-mail at drivercare@leaseplan.be. They will give you the details of the tyre centres where you can get your tyres repaired. You can then contact the tyre centre directly to make an appointment. The tyre centre will take care of the inspection and LeasePlan will look after the paperwork. What are the consequences if my tyre pressures are too low? One in three vehicles in Europe has tyre pressures that are too low. In Belgium, this number actually rises to nine out of ten vehicles. The consequences of driving with tyre pressures that are too low are far-reaching for both the car and the environment. Low pressure causes the tyres to wear out faster than normal. This is due to the sides of the tyre becoming overloaded, which significantly raises the tyre

What should I pay attention to when handing in my car? Hand in your car in a clean and tidy condition. Dirty cars fetch a lower price and will therefore be cleaned at your expense. Make sure that you also remove your personal belongings from the car. I have to hand in my car, but I paid for a number of additional options myself. Can I keep these and what would it cost? Yes, this is possible, although not for all options. It is only possible if the removal of a specific option causes no damage to the car (such as a bike rack, child car seat or tow bar). The additional options need to be removed before the car is returned.
How does your lease contract end? Excess: who pays – the employee or the employer? This depends on the car policy. Some companies pay the initial excess and the driver pays for all others. Other companies pay the excess when their drivers drive for a certain period accident-free and are then involved in an accident. Some courier companies pay all excesses, because the vehicles frequently change drivers and it is impossible to find out who actually caused the damage. In other companies, each case is considered individually based on the average loss statistics. If LeasePlan is unable to receive an admission of liability from the other party at the time the repair invoice has to be paid, the insurance excess will also be charged to the client. It goes without saying that if LeasePlan is still able to recover these expenses, the client will be credited with the excess charged.
In a separate article in this issue of Intentions (p. 12), we explain in more detail what you can expect when handing in your car and how best you can prepare.
12 Intentions Process
How does your lease contract end?
As you are used to with LeasePlan, the process of returning vehicles at the end of the contract is handled as professionally as possible. This results in a transparent service for customers who lease or take over a LeasePlan vehicle. And to ensure that everything goes smoothly, LeasePlan has drawn up a set of minimum standards with regard to the condition in which every lease car must be returned.
At the end of a lease contract, the driver must hand in the car for a detailed and independent inspection. This takes place in a LeasePlan Car Remarketing centre in collaboration with SGS Automotive. The driver may decide to take the car to the centre, but in the majority of cases we'll come and pick up the vehicle, so that it's less timeconsuming. We would recommend that you first consult with your fleet manager to be sure about the right procedure.
Transparent reporting SGS prepares a report for each vehicle. This appraisal report lists any damage considered outside the scope of normal wear and tear. This is determined on the basis of the standards drawn up by LeasePlan. The report contains a description of the identified abnormal damage: the type of damage, the severity and the costs for repairing the damage. The report translates these repair costs into a capital loss, while taking into account the mileage and the age of the vehicle. It is all completely transparent, as the individual report is then made available to the lease customer in question and to potential buyers of the vehicle. This results in a huge pile of reports, when you consider that LeasePlan Car Remarketing in Boortmeerbeek sells no fewer than 12,000 fresh ex-lease cars every year.
The report is completely transparent, as it is made available to the lease customer in question and to potential buyers of the vehicle. Tips for assessing your vehicle before returning it Make sure the vehicle is clean
On the day you return the car, both the interior and exterior should be clean. This avoids you being charged for nonacceptable marks in the interior, for instance.
Inspect your vehicle objectively
If you want to see for yourself whether your vehicle has any potential non-acceptable damage, it's best to do so outside where it is bright but shady and not in strong sunlight.
Check for any dents
It is best to check for any dents by inspecting each panel of your vehicle separately. For example, start with the roof, then check the bonnet and continue systematically until you've looked at every panel individually. If you're still wondering whether certain damage may or may not be acceptable, you should consult the information which is available on our website.
Be thorough
Drivers usually inspect the bodywork carefully, but sometimes forget to check the headlights, wing and rear mirrors and the windscreen. Remember that the roof might also be damaged, for example, as a result of hail.
Acceptable and non-acceptable damage Of course, it's difficult to describe every kind of possible damage, but we can try to prepare you as much as possible, so that you have a better idea of the minimum standards which lease return vehicles must satisfy. It's important to bear in mind that the appraisal greatly depends on the age and mileage of the vehicle. On the other hand, irrespective of these parameters, certain cracks or damage are deemed non-acceptable. This can include missing parts or broken glass. If you would like a more detailed breakdown of what constitutes acceptable and non-acceptable damage to the various parts (such as the exterior, interior, glass & lamps, tyres & rims, etc.), simply go to our website: www.leaseplan.be > ‘Useful information for drivers’ > ‘End of contract’. Here you can find many other interesting facts about your lease car.

For the past year, LeasePlan has been the preferred leasing partner of Mitsubishi under the M-label. The importer of the Japanese manufacturer, Beherman Group, is very satisfied with the partnership. After all, LeasePlan has all the expertise to serve every need of Mitsubishi's specific target group. A conversation with Christian Stas de Richelle, Director & General Manager at Beherman Group. He's over the moon, because on the very day of the interview he's able to show off the brand-new Eclipse Cross.

The 2016 LeasePlan CarCost Index €537 for a diesel and €547 for a petrol car: these are the monthly amounts you need to lay out in Belgium for a midrange vehicle, such as a Volkswagen Golf or a Renault Clio. This means that Belgium is one of the top 10 most expensive European countries for owning a car. This is one of the findings from the 2016 LeasePlan CarCost Index.

The analysis covers running costs during the first three years for drivers who clock up an average of 20,000 km per year.
