The DriveAZ.co.uk scheme has been designed and developed by GE Commercial Finance Fleet Services, in conjunction with AstraZeneca, to help you purchase a new vehicle at a significantly lower price than you'd have to pay on the open market.
Easily accessible online, DriveAZ.co.uk is simple to operate and gives you access to money-saving preferential new car discounts and finance. What's more, as well as the online system, GE provides a fully resourced Help Line which is there especially to help you. The Helpline is open Monday to Friday 9am to 5.30pm on 0870 600 8998.
AstraZeneca and GE have negotiated some very favorable deals with most manufacturers - and if one of the vehicles in our portfolio appeals to you, we're sure you'll find that they represent excellent value.

I am an AstraZeneca Assignee into the UK, how can Drive AZ help me?
The Drive AZ Scheme offers the opportunity for you to purchase a vehicle at a highly discounted price when compared to high street prices in the UK.
GE Commercial Finance Fleet Services are the service provider for the scheme and will assist you in the purchase of your vehicle, they will also provide finance and will be sympathetic to the two-year residency qualification when approving a loan. As a result of tightened money laundering laws, you will be asked for some personal information to assist GE in establishing your status, this can be frustrating and we ask you for your patience.
You can take out a 'buyback' agreement and hand the car back at the end of its term. For this reason you need to accurately determine the length of the buyback contract you take out and try to match it as closely as possible to the term of your stay.
You are wholly financially responsible for a purchase through Drive AZ and must arrange car insurance yourself.
Vehicle excise duty (car tax disc) is provided for the first twelve months, thereafter you must purchase this yourself.
