The Commercial Bank of Ceylon and Sathosa Motors have come together once again to offer buyers of commercial vehicles an attractive leasing package for a limited duration.
Sathosa Motors is offering discounts of Rs. 50,000 to Rs. 100,000 on its entire range of Isuzu motor lorries, cabs and busses until 31 March under this promotion supported by Sri Lanka’s benchmark private bank with very competitive lease rentals.
Besides the special lease rentals and discounts on the sales price, parties who lease Isuzu vehicles during this period will enjoy six labour-free services, a 100,000 km engine and gearbox warranty subject to maintenance at the Sathosa Motors workshop, a two-year or 40,000km warranty on the vehicle, and expedited processing at Commercial Bank’s island-wide branch network.
