I have recently taken on a new client, but it's a bit more complex than normal. This particular guy runs 6 fairly small limited companies. I've given him one price for all the work.

Hi, I have a client (sole trader) who is thinking of getting a new car through leasing. They have asked me a few questions about this, which I am not sure how to answer.
