"Terms & Conditions for the use of "courtesy car"

If you wish to borrow the courtesy car please fill this out and send it together with the "terms & conditions"

A courtesy car  (Honda S-MX 2 litre petrol automatic - japanese import  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_SMX   )  will be loaned to customers  while their car is being rustproofed.  The car is insured for customers to drive.   Please bring your driving licence with you.   Please note that there is a £750 excess on my insurance policy for the car.     Customers who borrow the courtesy car are responsible for paying this excess in case of damage.  

While the customer's vehicle is in my workshop it will be covered by my own insurance to a limit of £50,000. If your vehicle has a higher value than this, an extra premium can be arranged for the day. This will be at the customer's cost.

Customers will be asked to sign a "check-sheet" detailing the condition of the courtesy car when it is handed over to them with details of mileage and fuel gauge readings. When the car is brought back, this "check-sheet" will be used as a reference and the loan car will be examined with the customer for any damage that has occurred during the customer's use. If any damage has occurred, the customer will sign a form admitting liability for the damage & the customer will be expected to pay for any damage up to the amount of £750.

Customers will pay a surcharge for any soiling or staining of the upholstery.

The car will be loaned with a full tank. Customers must fill up before bringing the car back.  The nearest filling station is near junction 2 of the M6 (shown on map on  page 1a of the information pack) . If the car is not filled up the customer will have to pay a minimum surcharge of £30 for the time needed to drive to the filling station to fill up. 

The customer must verify that oil and coolant levels are normal when the car is running. If any mechanical defect is noted the car must be returned immediately (or if more than 4 miles away from Before 'n' After premises - call AA to have car transported). Any mechanical damage, which occurs during the customer's use, will be charged to the customer.

If the car is driven over 100 miles there will be a surcharge of £50.

If you agree with these terms and conditions please sign and date this letter.
