MAJOR congratulations to Select Car Leasing, whose live fleet has surpassed 100,000 vehicles for the first time in the firm’s history.
Earlier this month Select was named the biggest leasing broker by sales volume at the inaugural BN25 event for an outstanding 34,195 contract hire sales orders in 2025.
Since the beginning of January, Select’s average weekly sales figures topped 1,000 units – another milestone for a firm first established in 2004. The target of more than 100,000 was reached at the end of February 2026.
That figure includes all live contracts for cars and vans – including new and used personal and business lease customers as well as formal extensions.
Mark Tongue, CEO and Founder at Select Car Leasing (pictured), said: “More than 100,000 vehicles on the roads right now have been placed there by Select Car Leasing. That’s not just more than Select has ever achieved, it’s also more than any UK leasing broker ever.”
“Select Car Leasing began in 2004 with two people, a fax machine and a telephone. But we were always driven by attention to detail and unrivalled customer service, and those fundamental principles will support our continued growth through 2026 and beyond.”

He added: “For Select Car Leasing, the word ‘value’ means more than just price. Real value is about customer service, the life of the contract, and the reliability of the company you’re dealing with.”
Select was named the UK’s Most Trusted Car Leasing Company in the recent Corporate Excellence Awards and boasts an ‘Excellent’ 4.9 out of 5 score on Trustpilot, based on almost 48,000 reviews.
