BUY A CAR WITH CONFIDENCE

Buying a car is a decision you don't make every day. Specifications, photos and a short test drive are often not enough to see if a particular type of car really suits you in everyday life. That's why AVIS has come up with Rent & Buy - a practical solution for anyone who is thinking of buying a car but wants to try it out in real life first.

Rent a vehicle of your choice from AVIS, test drive it on a normal day, weekend or business trip and if you subsequently decide to buy the same model from AutoGigant, you'll get a discount on the purchase price equal to the rental value*

Ride first. Then buy.

When buying a car, we often make decisions based on price, equipment, design or recommendations. But you'll only find out the real difference when you test drive the car in its own mode. How do you get in? Does the seating position suit you? Does it fit in the garage? Is the boot space sufficient? How does the car drive in town, on the motorway or on normal family duties? Will it be suitable for other family members?

These are the questions that the Rent & Buy event answers. Instead of deciding just on the basis of an advert or a short tour, you can rent your chosen type of car first and check whether it really is the right choice for you.

How does Rent & Buy work?

The mechanism of the action is simple:

1. You choose the type of vehicle you are considering
   For example, it could be a city car, a family SUV, a station wagon, a utility vehicle or another type depending on availability.
2. You rent a vehicle at AVIS
   You'll test drive a car in real life - on your daily commute, travelling, work transfers or family activities.
3. You'll find out if the type of car really suits you
   During your rental, you'll check comfort, fuel consumption, space, driveability and practical details that are often overlooked during a routine inspection.
4. If you decide to buy the same type of car at AutoGigante, you will get a discount
   The rental value can be deducted from the purchase price of the vehicle at AutoGigant, up to a maximum of €100 excluding VAT.

For whom is Rent & Buy the ideal solution?

The event is designed for anyone who wants to feel more confident when buying a car.

For people who are buying their next car

If you already have an idea of what kind of car you want but aren't sure about a particular type, Rent & Buy will help you check your choice before you buy.

For families

A family car needs to do more than just look nice. It needs to carry the kids, luggage, shopping, sports equipment and weekend plans. With a rental, you'll quickly find out if the type of vehicle suits you both spatially and practically.

For businesses and tradesmen

When it comes to a company car, it's not just the price that counts, but also the usability. Rent & Buy can be a practical way of checking whether the type of vehicle suits your business trips, business meetings, service trips or day-to-day operations.

For drivers who are changing vehicle category

Switching from a small car to an SUV? From manual to automatic? From a passenger car to a commercial vehicle? A lease is what will show you if the new vehicle type fits you beyond a short test drive.

Why is it worth renting a car before buying?

A classic test drive often lasts only a few minutes and takes place in the vicinity of the dealer. Renting gives you the opportunity to get to know the car in situations that are really important to you.

During the rental you can check:

• whether the size of the car suits you,
• how the car parks,
• whether it has enough space for family or work,
• how it handles on the motorway and in town,
• whether the automatic or manual gearbox suits you,
• whether the boot space is sufficient,
• how the car feels after a long drive,
• whether the type of car fits into your everyday life.

The result is a more relaxed decision. You don't just buy a car based on parameters. You buy it based on your own experience.

AVIS + AutoGigant: a practical link between renting and buying a car

The Rent & Buy event connects two needs that are naturally linked. AVIS allows you to test drive a car by renting it first. AutoGigant then offers the option of buying a vehicle from the available car dealer offer.

For the customer, this means an easier path from consideration to purchase:

You test drive the car first. Then you decide. And if you choose a vehicle at AutoGigant, part of the rental cost can be returned to you in the form of a discount on the purchase price.

Example of using an action

Imagine you are considering buying a family SUV. You like the look of it, but you're not sure if it will be comfortable enough for long journeys, if it will park well and if the boot will fit everything you need.

As part of the Rent & Buy event, you can first rent a similar type of vehicle from AVIS. Try it out at the weekend, during the working week or on a family road trip. If you find that this type of vehicle suits you, you can then choose a similar model from the AutoGigantrange . When you buy, you will receive a discount equal to the rental value, up to a maximum of €100 excluding VAT.
