“We selected Alphabet as our partner for this scheme after canvassing the market as they offered a very flexible approach, with excellent terms and mileage parameters, and were a very good fit for us.

“CLM AlphaDrive offers employees a brand new car every two, three or four years , with a wide choice at competitive prices, known costs, no Benefit in Kind tax liabilities and the transfer of ownership from day one of the agreement.

“The scheme also allows companies to tackle the duty of care issues they face where they have employees using their own vehicles of indeterminate quality and reliability, as it provides brand new cars which must be serviced in accordance with manufacturer guidelines,” he added.

New vehicle quotations are made available for each employee through CLM AlphaDrive’s online quoting and ordering system, which instantly allows users to create quotes, compare different vehicles and order their new car online.

Eligible employees can take a maximum of two CLM AlphaDrive cars for themselves or a family member, and the standard monthly agreement includes full maintenance, UK and European breakdown assistance and tyre replacement. In addition, road fund licence cost is included for the length of the agreement.

There is also the option to take out early settlement and gap insurance to cover any possible shortfall between the financial settlement costs and the vehicle value in the event of a change of circumstances such as redundancy. Employees must also take out fully comprehensive motor insurance and provide evidence so the road fund licence can be purchased on their behalf.
