Offering Finance - low turnover niche cars

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Generally in our little world of classic cars, buyers pay with cash but more recently I've had a couple of requests for finance (make of that what you will!!).  I get the impression that the usual finance providers would not want to partner with a small, niche outfit like ours and we'd probably only do a handful of finance sales a year.  Does anyone have any experience or leads with providers that may be more matched to our needs?

Thanks in advance,
Anthony.

Mallard Finance do older classics too 01206 243100 

They are brokers , think you have the be FCA approved to deal with them . But real easy to work with and competitive too . 

If i didn't use Moto Novo and Close I would give them more business but its the speed of the prop I go for , next day or two hours later  isn't soon enough .

Iv'e used them for a couple of weird sales like an old Rover 2000 for a guy , worked well there .
