Frequently asked questions
Is it free?
Yes. Members never pay us for the estimate, advice or posting.
Are you a dealer?
No. We run the Lease Takeover Vancouver Facebook group. If a local dealer is the best way out, we introduce you only with your permission, and you decide.
Why photos instead of a typed VIN?
A VIN plate photo avoids typos and confirms the exact vehicle. The dashboard photo confirms the kilometres.
What happens to my photos and data?
They are used only to identify and value your car, kept in private storage that only the admins can access, and never posted or sold. Ask us any time to delete them.
How did you get my name?
You posted a vehicle in our group. If you would rather not hear from us, say so and we will not contact you again.
Do I have to use you to stay in the group?
No. The group stays open, and posting stays free either way.
