Guide prices for sizing a finance agreement, not quotes. Manufacturers in this market mostly price on application, so where a current UK list price could not be confirmed the row describes a specification class rather than naming a model. Your supplier quote is what the agreement is written against.

Check EligibilityA tyre fitting machine usually qualifies for Annual Investment Allowance (AIA), letting a business deduct the full cost from taxable profits in the year of purchase, up to £1,000,000. HP agreements allow capital allowances to be claimed by the business making the payments. Lease payments are generally deductible against profits as a business expense rather than qualifying for AIA directly.
Tyre changers are bought by independent garages, forecourt tyre and service bays, and fast-fit tyre centres fitting and replacing tyres as a core or additional service. Finance is used because moving from a basic semi-automatic changer to a fully automatic or leverless machine, needed to handle the low-profile and larger alloy wheels increasingly common on modern cars without damaging them, is a meaningful step up in cost that many independent garages would rather spread than fund outright. Replacement is driven mainly by clamping and mechanical wear from daily use and by wheel sizes and tyre profiles on the road changing over time, which can leave an older machine struggling with wheels it wasn't designed to handle safely. The used market is reasonably active for semi-automatic machines, though buyers should check clamps, seals and hydraulics carefully, since a worn changer risks damaging alloy wheels and tyres, which quickly becomes a costly and reputation-damaging problem for a garage.
