Hello!
I am Ling!

I'm the UK's hardest working car leasing provider, and I run LINGsCARS, the UK's favourite car leasing website.

Don't be deceived... I may be a scruffy Chinese girl, but I have more happy new-car customers and supply more new cars than many of the anonymous (and some big-name!) leasing companies out there, combined.

I treat customers like adults, not like idiots.

I'm Chinese, from Chengdu in the People's Republic. I married Jon Valentine in 1997 in Helsinki. I was in Finland doing a Master's degree (in Finnish!!!), when I met Jon. He's English. He said Valentine is a Scottish-Jewish name, but he's from Yorkshire. He talks rubbish... :)

I am full-time LINGsCARS business owner and I specialise in supplying new UK Contract Hire, (and sometimes PCP, Lease cars and Lease Hire) cars and vans. LINGsCARS consumes my life to make it a very successful business. In 2008, I moved over £35,000,000 of brand new cars!

My mum and dad still live in Chengdu, Sichuan, and I go back at least once every year. China is coming on, you know! Although the political situation is rotten, it's stable and my family have a good life. My mum's a famous dentist (over 70 but still working!), and my dad used to work for the government in the Environmental Service, but he's retired now.

My sister Shan works for the Sichuan Poverty Relief Office, but in the Cultural Revolution, she used to be a red guard! I'm too young to have been involved in all that rubbish. China's quite polluted, and not as green as the UK... plus there are so many people everywhere there. Life is more pleasant here...and I've been naturalised now. I guess that makes me Chinglish. I am a successful immigrant at least! I did it legally, and I have succeeded. That puts a smile on my face.

I only ever swear in English, not in Chinese. My mum's doing; polite Chinese girls don't swear, you see.
