Why lease the Porsche 718 Boxster?

You don't need to worry about depreciation or selling the car later - simply hand it back at the end of your agreement. For business users, a Porsche lease could offer significant tax advantages, with the potential to reclaim up to 100% of VAT if you're VAT-registered.
At Hippo Leasing, we can help you find the perfect lease deal to match your budget and requirements, whether you're looking for a personal or business lease.
