RECENT CONVERTIBLE FINANCE DEALS – USED CAR FINANCE

We always value the relationships we build with our clients, and this story highlights just that. One of our long-standing clients, a true car enthusiast, has trusted us over the years to arrange finance on an incredible line-up of vehicles, including Lamborghini, McLaren and Mercedes-Benz.

This time, his sights were set on something truly special: the Aston Martin Vantage AMR ‘59’ Limited Edition. Produced in celebration of Aston Martin’s famous victory at the 1959 24 Hours of Le Mans, only 59 examples of this car were built worldwide, making it a rare and highly sought-after model. With its 5.2-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine, unique styling details, and motorsport-inspired heritage, the Vantage ‘59’ is as thrilling to look at as it is to drive.

The car was sourced through a franchised dealer, but when it came to funding, we were able to provide a more competitive prestige car finance arrangement than the in-house option. By tailoring the structure to the client’s preferences, we ensured a solution that suited both the vehicle and his ownership plans.

Having worked with us many times before, this client appreciates the personal approach we bring as a broker. We offer advice, flexibility, and access to funding that often outperforms dealer-provided packages. We’re proud to continue supporting his passion for cars with finance solutions that match the calibre of the vehicles themselves.

The team at Fast Car Finance are on hand to discuss funding your next purchase, get in touch to see how we can help you drive your dream.

We were recently introduced to a new client through one of our trusted contacts at an independent Ferrari dealership. Having semi retired, the client was looking to treat himself to a “fun” weekend car. His heart was set on a Ferrari 355 Spider.

For those unfamiliar with Ferrari terminology, “Spider” (or “Spyder”) refers to a convertible model, typically with a soft-top roof that can be retracted. The name harks back to classic open-top sports cars and is now a hallmark of Italian motoring elegance. The 355 Spider, produced between 1995 and 1999, remains one of the most iconic Ferraris of the era.

The client had test-driven a couple of examples before settling on the one; what won him over was the sheer quality of the drive.

Although the vehicle was first registered in 1998, we were able to arrange a tailored Ferrari finance Lease Purchase agreement, making ownership both accessible and financially efficient. The structure included a final balloon payment that matched the amount of the initial advance, helping to keep monthly payments to a minimum.

It’s worth noting that the client will be responsible for the balloon payment at the end of the term. However, he retains flexibility, should he wish he can look at refinancing options when the agreement ends. He also has the option to settle early at any time without penalty.

With the summer sun now on the horizon, our client is looking forward to enjoying the Ferrari 355 Spider as it was meant to be, roof down, engine singing, and the open road ahead.

If you are looking to purchase a convertible get in touch with the team at Fast Car Finance to discuss your funding options.

When you’re a company director making bold moves in business, why not do the same on the road?

A new client had his sights set on swapping his Aston Martin for a sleek 2010 Ferrari California.

The goal? Keep monthly repayments low, with a final balloon payment on what will be the ultimate weekend thrill ride. Balancing financial acumen with a passion for luxury performance isn’t just for the boardroom, after all.

It’s a lesson in strategic decision-making ,whether you’re managing corporate growth or choosing your next set of wheels: Plan smart, invest wisely, and enjoy the ride.

At Fast Car Finance, we work closely with company directors to help turn their driving dreams into reality. We understand that income streams can be more complex for such clients, so we ensure funders have the right information to assess affordability and help craft tailored finance solutions that align with their goals.

At Fast Car Finance we have previously financed multiple cars for this returning client. This time he contacted us and asked us to arrange prestige finance on a new 2023 plate Bentley Continental GTC Mulliner.

The team at Fast Car Finance were able to arrange prestige car finance for this company director through his business on a 4 year term. As he was putting in a 10% deposit, we were able to secure finance with monthly repayments of £3446.97 and a final balloon payment of £140,682.

This Bentley was special to our client, as it had been on his wish list for quite a while and he had been looking for months to find one with his dream cream seats. He had informed the team at FCF that he would be financing one and therefore, the team was very patient and had everything pre-paired for when he found the perfect car.

If your in the market for luxury or prestige car finance please get in touch with our helpful team.

We had quoted this client previously and he contacted us when he was looking to purchase a Ferrari. At the point of his initial enquiry he didn’t know which model he wanted, so wished to test drive a few to see which he liked.

After looking at various cars he finally plumped for a Ferrari F430 and we were able to arrange prestige car finance for him. The supplying dealer was also trying to source finance, but the client arranged the deal with Fast Car Finance due to the relationship he had with us and the service we provided.

At Fast Car Finance we pride ourselves on the service we offer our clients, which means they come back time and again and also introduce their family and friends.

We love to help clients ‘Drive their dream’

The client was introduced to us by an independent car dealer and was looking to purchase a Porsche 718 Spyder.

With a monthly budget of £1,000 we ran a number of quotes for the client based on a Hire Purchase Agreement with a balloon payment ( also known as a Lease Purchase Agreement )

A balloon payment is a lump sum payment which is deferred and falls due at the end of the agreement. The amount of a balloon takes into account the car make and model, age and mileage together with the estimated annual mileage you will do over the term of the agreement.

The client had heard of PCP and wanted to know the difference between PCP and Lease Purchase. The simple difference is that with a Lease Purchase Agreement the final balloon payment is not a guaranteed future value and is your risk.

We were pleased to have been able to arrange prestige car finance for the client and he was able to enjoy his convertible car.

Having seen some details of previous transactions on our website, this new client contacted us to help arrange prestige car finance on a McLaren.

Like many of our clients, he does not receive a fixed monthly salary. We often see income derived from a mixture of salary, dividends, other businesses etc so it’s important we understand how annual income is made up. We have to present this information to any prospective lender and also be able to prove it by way of tax returns, bank statements, payslips and P60s.

Funding was approved and having found a suitable car the client arranged to view & test drive it. We would always recommended viewing and driving a car before making a purchase. You may also wish to arrange an independent Pre Purchase Inspection ( PPI )  depending on the value, age and marque of car.

Upon completion, the client collected the car and was able to add it to his collection of cars & boats.

The client who purchased this great example of a Ferrari California was introduced to us by the supplying dealer.

Having never owned or financed a car of this calibre before the client had lots of questions, and the team at Fast Car Finance were on hand to talk him through the process. Due to his occupation it also meant some out of hours calls, something we are becoming quite used to.

Once we had arranged Ferrari finance we arranged for the client to sign the paperwork and he was able to collect his car a couple of days later. In this example the client did not opt for a balloon payment at the end of the agreement,  deciding to repay it in equal instalments over a 5 year term.

Although the deal has been completed, we are still on hand to answer any future questions the client may have about his finance agreement, a future change of car or any other queries that may arise. Clients love being able to contact us directly, even if it’s just to get another copy of their lost documents!

Our returning client was after something a little different and decided he wanted to swap one of his current cars for a McLaren.

As we had known the client for some time, we knew his background and status so it was very easy for him and us to progress an application for supercar finance, with the client having to supply little additional information.

Our chosen lender also knew the client and were happy to facilitate the change of car. They were also able to provide a very good balloon residual which kept the monthly repayments affordable and within the client’s budget.

With the client due to return from holiday, speed was of the essence as he wanted to get into the new car as soon as he could after he got back. To help move the transaction along we met the client at the dealership to sign all the paperwork and also undertake an asset inspection.

We often have to undertake asset inspections on higher value cars, which also gives us an opportunity to see the car up close.

A first time client was introduced to us by an Independent Ferrari Dealership and was looking to purchase his first modern classic.

Having test driven a number of Ferraris he finally settled on a 2001 Ferrari 360 Spider. A ‘spider’ being a convertible.

Not having purchased a car of this vintage before the client was unsure if he would be able to arrange Ferrari finance to include a balloon payment or if it would need to be straight repayment. After speaking with the FCF team, we were able to confirm to him that we could look to arrange finance on a car of this age on the same basis as we would a newer car.

With our knowledge and expertise and specialist lenders on our panel, we often get approached to arrange funding for cars that are 10, 20 and 25+ years old.

Having walked the client through the process he was delighted with our service and came back to us a few weeks later to ask us to arrange finance for a daily run around. He also referred his brother to us, so a great endorsement of our services.

Having recently approached the Fast Car Finance team to arrange Porsche finance on a Porsche GT3 RS, this high-net-worth client was soon back in touch with us to see if we had the ability to add a further car to his collection.

The search had been ongoing for a modern classic, a Mercedes-Benz SLS Roadster. Having now found a suitable example with the correct service history, our client wanted to understand if we could provide prestige car finance noting the cars age. We were very quick to advise our client that supercar finance for a ten year old example was perfectly feasible and could be arranged.

Used Mercedes finance quickly secured over a five-year term to include a sizeable balloon payment at the end of the term.

The team at Fast Car Finance work with a significant number of car collectors and high net worth clients. If you are looking to purchase a new or used super car and require a discreet and professional car finance broker to arrange supercar finance please get in touch.

Call our team on 01635 785400.

This South coast-based petrol head had recently financed two cars with the Fast Car Finance team and so knew where to come for car number three! Having been on the hunt for a Porsche Boxster.

He already had his BMW on finance with us along his Porsche 911, so he was confident we could provide a competitive Porsche Finance APR for this next acquisition.

Discretion is assured with our all clients and knowing this car enthusiast extremely well, we already had all his personal details and relevant financials on file. This enabled us to secure the finance “same day” using the lender we had on the existing two cars. This meant we could complete his used Porsche Boxster finance within just a few working days, enabling him to collect the car the very same weekend.

A returning client was looking to purchase a stunning low mileage 2016 Aston Martin Vanquish Volante V12 as a weekend/sunny day car.

Having financed his 5 previous car with Fast Car Finance, he knew who to speak to when looking to arrange Aston Martin finance.

The car was being purchased through an Aston Martin franchised dealer at a cost of £111,995 . Withthe client putting down a 10% deposit he was looking to fiannce the balance of £101,000 over 5 years with a balloon. The balloon payment at the end of the agreement allowing him to reduce his monthly repayment.

Funding was approved as proposed in a little over 5 hours,  meaning the client was soon able to take delivery of this stunning car.

Introduced to us by her husband who is a long-standing FCF client, this company director was looking to purchase a 2011 Bentley Continental GTC Supersports costing £70k from a ‘private’ vendor.

When purchasing from a ‘private vendor’ it is important to be vigilent. This includes checking the service history of the vehicle, ownership details, and condition. You may also want to consider getting an independent inspection undertaken.

The client had a healthy deposit to put down, leaving a finance amount of £40k. Funding was required over 5 years with a balloon payment to ensure this stunning weekend convertible had minimal impact on her bank balance! Prestige car finance was arranged with a balloon of just over £31k meaning the client had a minimal monthly commitment of £362 to drive around in this stunning car which had been a dream of her’s for many years!

A long-standing Fast Car Finance client recently returned to us and was looking for used Mercedes finance for an 80’s Mercedes-Benz 280SL he had found. Fast Car Finance had previously funded six cars for this client, and we were delighted to be able to look at Mercedes Benz finance deals for this returning customer who is now semi-retired and has a large buy-to-let portfolio.

This client has a real passion for cars so this out-of-the-blue call for us to arrange finance for this 1980s convertible Mercedes didn’t surprise us! It’s a fantastic car to add to his growing collection.

As we were funding a car from the 1980s, the Fast Car Finance team had to complete all of the necessary checks and made contact with specialist lenders to enable us to arrange the finance. For many lenders and brokers a car of this age would be difficult to finance. But by using a specialist broker like Fast Car Finance we have access to lenders who understand the market and the car absolutely delighted to be able to confirm a finance arrangement for the client who decided to pay 10% up front and finance the rest of the cost. We were able to provide a seamless finance experience for the client, and we’re sure he’ll be back again soon!

Having grown up in the passenger seat of his father’s classic cars, our company director client got to the stage in both life and business where he wanted to get in the driving seat and behind the wheel of his own classic Ferrari.

This client was referred to us by Kent High Performance cars, and we put together a bespoke Ferrari finance plan to meet the client’s wishes for his monthly repayments. We were happy to communicate via phone and email as and when it suited the client to fit around his busy lifestyle.

We were absolutely delighted to help the client achieve his dreams of following in his father’s footsteps and becoming a Ferrari owner.

Referred to us by Kent High Performance cars, our client visited the showroom while the Fast Car Finance team was at the dealership so that we could establish a rapport and see this stunning Ferrari in person. Our client is a very successful entrepreneur with a portfolio of stunning buy-to-let properties, and whilst he was driving an Aston Martin, he had always dreamed of owning a Ferrari.

Although our client loved weekend driving in his Aston Martin, the particular model that he owned was losing up to £1,000 per month in depreciation for every month that he owned it! Understandably, the client was frustrated and wanted to switch to a different car that would retain its value.

The client was interested in a particularly magnificent Ferrari 430 Spider so the Fast Car Finance team gave him some Ferrari car finance quotes, noting the client wanted similar monthly figures to those he was paying for his Aston Martin. The client was delighted to proceed with one of the Ferrari financing options that we had drawn up, and he later drove away in his new dream Ferrari, taking his classic car ownership up to the next level! We were delighted to arrange Ferrari finance for this client.

A first-time client was recently referred to us by our colleagues at Kent High Performance Cars but unfortunately the car he was interested in was sold to someone else before he could get his hands on it to arrange a test drive! This client had bought expensive cars before but this time he was looking at the next level up; a stunning Ferrari 458 Spider.

The original Ferrari he had seen at Kent High Performance Cars was on sale for £110,000 but, seeing as this was sold to someone else in no time at all, he then found another one at a franchised Ferrari dealership for £160,000. Keen to secure this incredible model and drive away in a car which reflected our client’s Italian roots, we were quickly able to alter the Ferrari finance approval we had secured from the original price to this new price and got the finance approved on the second car, even though it was £50,000 more expensive than the first!

As the car was being supplied from a franchised Ferrari dealership, it was understandable that the dealer wanted to sort out the finance but this loyal client chose Fast Car Finance to arrange this supercar finance which was incredibly competitive. We met the client face to face to make sure he was entirely comfortable with all the finance paperwork and he was extremely happy to see his Italian supercar arrive on his driveway at home just a few days later.

With a Ferrari already on his driveway that Fast Car Finance arranged a few years ago, this company director came back to us for Porsche finance deals when his annual performance bonus came through. Having found a Porsche 911 Targa 4S, he wanted to spend some of his annual performance bonus on a Porsche.

This stunning example had just 200 miles on the clock from new, so our client knew he had to snap up this 2018 model quickly.

Our client was aware that the Fast Car Finance team would pull out all the stops to ensure we could provide Porsche 911 finance and we were delighted to arrange an incredible deal at just 6.4% APR on the car, one which had a screen price of £104,000. A brilliant finance offer was structured for the client who has monthly repayments of £770 per month with a balloon payment of £55,000 payable at the end of the five year term.

The client was equally delighted that we were able to meet him near his home to sign up the classic car financing deal so that he could take ownership of the Porsche 911 Targa 4S in time for his week’s holiday in the north.

In summary, our client was delighted that we were able to secure him the Porsche finance deal that he needed, with low monthly repayments and a competitive APR. Plus, he was able to drive off and enjoy his car for the weekend less than a week after making his initial Ferrari finance enquiry.

Many dealers will struggle to offer car finance on a car that’s over 10 years old and this was the case when our client purchased a 14-year-old Porsche 911 (997) Carrera 4S. Many Porsche finance lenders wouldn’t lend against this age of vehicle, so when our client found his dream car at a local Porsche dealership, the dealer contacted Fast Car Finance straight away because they knew our expert panel of lenders would be able to offer competitive Porsche Carrera finance.

Our client runs a security company, but chose to finance the Porsche 911 Carerra 4S in his personal name and wanted payments of £400 per month. Within hours of the sale, we had secured a £20,000 at an interest rate of 8.9% APR with a 5-year loan term.

Many of Fast Car Finance’s clients come to us every time they change their car, which can be as frequently as every 18 months for some enthusiasts!  Now financing his fifth car through Fast Car Finance, this professional buy to let landlord knew that we would be able to secure a great rate for used Mercedes finance through specialist lenders who are comfortable with the large number of loans and mortgages on his credit file, evident as part of his business activities.

Demonstrating proof of income is a key factor for car finance lenders when they are underwriting car finance applications. For a professional landlord, specialist lenders are happy to underwrite a loan if they can see that the client has a good credit rating and can demonstrate that he can meet the mortgage payments and his car loan through the property rental income.

Having arranged car finance for a number of this client’s cars, we knew exactly which lenders to speak to and as we had all his details on file, we were able to arrange Mercedes finance with very little fuss and involvement from our client, who is incredibly busy.

He was delighted that he could enjoy his new, high performance Mercedes Benz and we have no doubt that we will see him again in 18 months time when it’s time for the next change!

Many Fast Car Finance clients are introduced to us via their accountant and this was no different. Our client runs a hair salon very close to us in Newbury and wanted to find the best deal for Porsche Boxster finance. Having sourced the car from an independent, specialist dealer, he very sensibly ran the car dealership finance quote past his accountant to ensure the dealer’s finance quote was competitive.  Our client’s accountant had dealt with Fast Car Finance many times previously and knew we’d be able to offer a more competitive finance deal.

Speed was incredibly important here. The initial enquiry came through on a Thursday and we had to do some out of hours due diligence and were able to tell the client that day we could provide a competitive Porsche Boxster finance offer that was 2% lower than the dealer had quoted, all of course subject to underwriting.

The deal was proposed to the lender on Friday morning and approved the same afternoon. A quick meeting on the subsequent Monday morning to sign the paperwork enabled our client to drive away in his new Porsche the following day.

We are often contacted for a second opinion on car dealership finance quotes by accountants who know that we will often structure a far more competitive Porsche car finance packages for their clients than the supplying dealer will. As an independent car finance broker, we have access to a wide panel of lenders who understand the specialist nature of the classic car financing rates for the cars we finance. Plus, they know that we can provide fast finance for fast cars, so that their clients can drive their dream quickly and with minimum fuss.

Many of our customers choose to use an independent car finance specialist such as Fast Car Finance because of the level of support we can provide for clients who need help navigating the world of classic car finance. Our Cyber Security Director client had been referred to us by the team at Kent High Performance Cars. Unfortunately, they were not able to source the model of Ferrari that he wanted, so we set about providing illustrations for a number of different marques.

Our client test drove a number of Ferrari and Aston Martin models and eventually chose a beautiful low mileage Ferrari California (a 2010 example). Along the way it took several attempts for our client to source what he and Fast Car Finance felt was the right car. We even advised him to walk away from one example because the service history of the vehicle didn’t fit with the age and profile of the car. Our client was grateful that we were able to provide our specialist knowledge of purchasing sports cars, not just arranging Ferrari California finance, but the things about the car that didn’t add up and would potentially have cost him a lot of money further down the line.

We were delighted to support our client on his journey to sports car ownership and hope he enjoys this stunning low mileage Rosso Corsa Ferrari California!

Another satisfied customer referred to Fast Car Finance via Kent High Performance Cars who recommended this company director to us because they knew we’d be able to find a competitive finance deal for this stunning Ferrari, which he purchased for £71,500.

This client has a property portfolio in addition to his residential lettings business, so Fast Car Finance was required to demonstrate to the lender that his income was secure and that his earnings would continue to make the finance repayments during lockdown and beyond.

As always, our service was very discreet, and we were able to arrange Ferrari finance for this company director client with minimum disruption to his busy working life.

Another satisfied customer who is now driving his dream and we wish him a sunny summer so that he can enjoy this stunning Ferrari to its full potential.

Launched at the Geneva Motor Show, the McLaren 650S was the Woking outfits reiteration of the hugely popular MP4 12C.

When the first examples hit the showrooms, a longstanding client of Fast Car Finance placed his order, keen to add this UK super car to his small but growing collection.

With a price tag of just under £250,000, it needed a sensibly structured finance package to enable affordable ownership. We were able to organise a four year Hire Purchase loan with a final lump sum (known as a balloon payment) of £80,000. By deferring a substantial part of the loan, this reduced the customers monthly payments by over £2,000 pcm.

The Fast Car Finance team has access to a number of lenders that uniquely operate in the high value prestige car market, this enables us to structure super car finance to suit your personal circumstances.

Having recently used the services of Fast Car Finance to purchase a £90,000 Range Rover Sport SVR, this customer was now after a little “something for the weekend” and it was a Lamborghini Gallardo Performante Spider that they had in mind.

After an exhaustive browse of the classifieds on-line, a superb low mileage example from 2012 was found, one with just 11,000 miles on the odometer. Offered for sale via a well-known independent super car dealer, our customer was keen to secure the finance on this stunning convertible super car before he made a formal offer to buy it.

Wanting to finance the purchase of the car through his Limited Company (the car was for a long-term investment), the FCF team set about finding a suitable lender, one able to structure the loan to include a balloon payment. This allowed for lower monthly repayments on his Lamborghini Gallardo finance over the duration of the loan, coupled with a £65,000 lump sum then due at the end of the term. With over fifteen years of experience in financing high value sports cars, we quickly secured our client favourable terms.

Our bespoke service also meant that we met the customer at his place of work to execute the signing of the paperwork, saving him the inconvenience of having to travel to our offices or those of the lender.

Super car finance made simple – If you are considering the purchase of a new or used Lamborghini and require Lamborghini car finance to aid the purchase please get in touch.

Super car finance examples don’t come any better than the Ferrari 458 Spider and we were delighted to help this busy Independent Financial Adviser with our recommendation for Ferrari Finance.

Supercar finance is one of our specialities and we were able to provide a fully underwritten offer of finance within a short time-frame. Furthermore, we provided the customer with a highly attractive rate of interest at 5.9% APR, coupled to which we structured in to the loan a large lump sum final payment to keep the payments within the customers budget.

The team at Fast Car Finance pride themselves on going the extra mile.

This customer was not really looking for car finance but was trying to raise a small sum of money as a contribution towards a pending property transaction.

We suggested to the customer that he consider undertaking an equity release against one of his cars. We knew he owned a 2014 Jaguar XKR convertible, so we set about getting this valued for him.

As he only needed to raise £8,000 an with the cars valuation well in excess of this figure we are arrange a car equity release secured against the car. In effect, he sold the car to a finance company (whilst continuing to have used and ownership). They registered an HPi marker against the car and provide a very simple Hire Purchase agreement. Once the agreement has been repaid, the HPi marker will be removed and legal title in the car will pass back to the customer.

We can arrange equity release car finance on most cars valued at £25,000 and above. Provided you can provide us with proof of ownership and demonstrate that the reason for raising the cash is for a legitimate business use we should be able to structure classic car finance or prestige car finance equity release.

Call us today on 0333 12 12 400 to discuss your equity release requirements.

Requiring a flexible and competitive finance arrangement to add another Ferrari to his small collection, we were on hand to assist this returning client.

Despite the car being 20 years old we were also able to secure a highly attractive APR of just 6.6%, proving that it is wise to invest in the services of a specialist car finance broker with access to a wide panel of lenders.

Our client, a lawyer specialising in International Law was already an avid fan of the Aston Martin brand. Having owned a DB7 for a number of years he has been hankering after a low mileage Aston Martin Vanquish Volante.

Having identified a suitable car at a franchised Aston Martin dealership, it was the MD at Fast Car Finance that he entrusted to arrange his prestige car finance.

Knowing the customer well and recognising he was in the middle of a complex legal case, we took away all the stress and kept the paperwork and email flow to a minimum.

It’s often the case that customers find us following a referral from an existing client or one of our dealer partners. In this case, the customer had located the car on-line and was looking for competitive Ferrari finance. The prospective seller of the car was an independent Ferrari dealer well known to the Fast Car Finance team and suggested the customer pick the phone up to us for an initial chat.

Following a brief discussion, we identified that the customer likes to change cars regularly and suggested he consider a Regulated Conditional Sale agreement, one where he could make additional lump sum payments and settle the agreement earlier than the end date without undue interest charges being applied.

Once you own your first Ferrari you are hooked, as was the case with this customer. Already the proud owner of a Ferrari Testarossa (financed via Fast Car Finance of course), he had uncovered a 328 GTS which he also wanted to add to his collection. Concerned that it would be difficult to raise finance for a second car so soon after acquiring the first, back to our expert team he came.

Worry he need not, suitable used Ferrari finance was secured the same day via a second and equally suitable classic car lender on our extensive panel. The resulting offer was for a loan over 4 years and with a balloon payment of £34,000 at the end of the term. This coupled with a modest 10% deposit allowed the customer to acquire the car with affordable monthly repayments.

Launched in 2008, the Ferrari California takes its name from the 1950’s 250 GT Spyder California. When this business lady lawyer wanted to become the proud owner of such a beautiful car, she was encouraged to talk the knowledgeable team here at Fast Car Finance.

Arranging used Ferrari finance is second nature to us, so much so that we were quickly able to put her mind at rest, swiftly advising this busy Solicitor that securing a five year loan term would not be an issue despite the car being nine years old. Having already spoken to her private bankers who could not help given the cars age, we quickly put the wheels in motion and had used Ferrari finance approved within 24 hours.

This busy lawyer was unable to meet in working hours to execute the paperwork, not a problem as we arranged a weekend meeting to sign the paperwork on the dealers premises close to her home.

Prestige car finance made simple. This Company Director wanted to trade up from his Porsche Cayenne into something a little more luxurious. Bentley car finance swiftly arranged over 5 years and with a balloon payment of £29,500 in order to help keep the finance repayments to a very low level. Furthermore, we were able to offer a very competitive Annual Percentage Rate (APR) courtesy of the extensive panel of lenders that we have access to at Fast Car Finance. Talking to an independent car finance broker can often result in a substantial saving on your finance payments as this customer discovered.

This gentleman was referred to the team at Fast Car Finance by his son. He was looking for classic car financing in respect of a beautiful Mercedes-Benz 300 SL that he was looking to purchase. Given he was was acquiring the car privately, his son who had previously used our services suggested he talk to us. We quickly arranged an independent valuation on the car and also agreed to view the car to check its provenance and current proof of ownership. With this completed, we arranged classic car finance, enabling our client to take delivery of this appreciating classic.

This prospective client was looking to buy a beautiful example of 5 litre supercharged Jaguar XKR convertible sports car. With the car being a slightly older model, some car finance companies were reluctant to assist due to its age, thankfully the knowledgeable team at Fast Car Finance know our cars and we were swiftly able to assist. Used sports car finance for this V8 drop top was approved by us on the same day as the enquiry was made. All the necessary paperwork was completed in a matter of just a few days, allowing collection of the car from the supplying dealer to fit within the client’s busy schedule.

When this medical professional was looking to purchase his first Ferrari, it was recommended he speak to Fast Car Finance about classic car financing. We were able to arrange competitive Ferrari Finance within 24 hours. A classic car finance loan repayable over 5 years allowing him to buy his dream car.

This existing client knew who to call when this gorgeous drop top caught his eye whilst out on business one day, it soon became a must have on his driveway for the English summer ahead. Having previously financed three cars with us, he was confident we would deliver a fast and flexible service once again. From discussing the proposal face to face at his home office until we returned with the paperwork for him to sign a few days later, he enjoyed a highly personal service, one delivered with our usual enthusiasm.

This Entrepreneur was looking to release some equity for exciting new projects, through his 18-year-old Ferrari 355 which he had purchased 12 months ago with Fast Car Finance’s help   as part of his ever-growing Ferrari collection.   Although re-financing can be complex we managed to do all the work from enquiry to arranging the funding within a week which our Client was more than happy with.

A long standing loyal customer who has a couple of classic and expensive Ferraris   which are financed with the help of the team at Fast Car Finance.   He was looking for an everyday drive but didn’t want a ‘new’ car but wanted something a little different by way of cheap classic car motoring. The car he found was an   old car and in loan terms was for a relatively small sum of money.   The only slight anomaly was that the car was imported recently from Japan despite originating from the UK.   It had to be re-specced for the UK (miles not kilometres etc) for example.   For Fast Car Finance it was simply a question of which Lender to approach to secure the finance.   Which we did.

This was a slightly overdue birthday present for our customer’s wife.   Having patiently waited to find the right car, when she did find it she wanted it now!   We turned the finance documents around in double-quick time which meant that the space that had been cleared in the garage suddenly   had a shiny new occupant!

Introduced to us by a well known Independent Specialist dealer this gentleman   wanted to replace his company car.   He was financing it in the company name as an asset. Working to a strict budget over a 3 year period, with a 10% deposit   was his brief to us.   He was very aware of APR rates so wanted us to get him the best rate possible which we did at- circa 7%.   It was quite time critical as the car had generated significant interest and we had to move fast.   We did.

An asset finance customer of ours with our Sister Company Thames Valley Asset Finance, this gentleman was buying the car as a Christmas present for his son as a surprise.   The car was 15 years old which meant we had to find the right Lender, which we did and the terms over a 4 year period were more than attractive for him.

Well known to Fast Car Finance and adding to his collection of prestige marques, this gentleman from the North West bought this low volume production car from a Morgan Dealer. Financed as a business purchase over 5 years – this Morgan Aero 8 was just the ticket.

Born in the 70’s – our customer already owns a Ferrari and wanted to add to his small but growing collection.   Although the car is quite ‘long in the tooth’ in the world of Lenders,  we put a residual value balloon payment on the agreement.  In doing so we achieved what the customer thought we wouldn’t be able to – we  massively reduced his expected monthly repayments. A job well done.

A long-standing customer of our Asset Finance Division (Thames Valley Asset Finance) who knows us well, came to us with a slightly different brief. He had been looking for some time, for the right car and thanks to the Internet he found it!   BUT the car was in America which can put off UK-based Lenders.   What Fast Car Finance did was to create a two-step financial package – meaning firstly he could get the car over to the UK and secondly finance it in his own personal name.

A Specialist Prestige Independent Car dealer wrote down Fast Car Finance’s telephone number and handed it to this IT Consultant.   The car he had set his heart on was 11 years old which in finance terms can mean they are difficult to fund.   Add to this the requirement from the customer that the  finance should run over as long a period as possible    – our challenge was set.   Using our extensive panel of Lenders we found someone prepared to fund this ‘old’ car over a 5 year term.   Perfect.

We’ve got to know this customer very well.   We’ve helped him to arrange finance for 4 cars in the relatively short time we’ve known eachother.   Originally a customer of ours from our Asset Finance Division – Thames Valley Asset Finance, he now uses Fast Car Finance to fund his ever-changing car choices. We’ve got all the paperwork and documentation we need to help this gentleman, so it makes sense that he comes back to us each time he wants to change his car.   It’s simple!

A date was fast approaching for this customer.   The date was that of his balloon repayment on the original loan.   He loved his Ferrari and asked Fast Car Finance to see if they could help him re-finance the balloon itself and spread the payments over 2 years.   We went to the same Lender and arranged exactly what the customer wanted.   He was delighted

This customer had a shaky start to owning his first Porsche.   His original choice of car simply didn’t live up to expectations. Fortunately the Dealer refunded his deposit and took the car back.   Undeterred, our customer found another Porsche from another Dealership and Fast Car Finance were able to swap the loan arrangement over using the same Lender.   Smiles all round.

We helped this delightful couple fund their brand new Porsche.   Despite being a loyal Porsche customer and having a 7 year old relationship with the marque, he came to us to see if we could arrange an attractive finance package.   Despite the Dealer’s best efforts and willingness to ‘match’ the rates we were able to offer, he was so impressed with the team at Fast Car Finance he stuck with us.

A customer of ours for some years now   rang the HQ on a Saturday morning.   It transpired that    after an extensive search for a period of over 18 months for the ‘perfect’ car he had found the one!   The only problem being that he was  literally going off to the USA the very next day (Sunday), but after such a long wait was extremely anxious for us not to ‘lose’ the car he had been searching for so long for.   As we know him well we were able to reassure him and off he went.   We had his ID already on file from previous deals, which meant were were able to take care of all the paperwork whilst he was on holiday and with a few scans here and there, the deal was signed up whilst he was on the other side of the world.

This customer’s first experience of Fast Car Finance was only 3 weeks before!   He came back to us saying that we had made the process of financing a car ‘too easy’ and wanted our help to change his weekend car.   He was thrilled to bits – with   2 car purchases completed within 3 weeks, despite his slightly challenging credit history, who can blame him for being happy!

A returning customer who has funded several cars with Fast Car Finance over the years, was going for something with a few more years on the clock.         This golden oldie was 45 years old!   The fact that we managed to secure a fantastically competitive APR of 8.1% meant that this discerning client had financed a classic car on new car rates.

This ex-bankrupt, self-employed Company Director had been saving  £1000 a month as a deposit for his supercar.   He knew he could live within his means based on this monthly outgoing and therefore was keen to spend no more when it came to his monthly repayment plan for the actual car finance.   With a deposit of 20% and a large balloon (58%) arranged, we kept his monthly payments to less than  £900 per month.   So he was  £100 per month better off!

Sadly this customer had recently been a victim of identity theft, which is a modern-day scourge of the Internet. Dealing with the aftermath of such a fraud is hard enough in itself, but when one of the consequences is that your credit rating is affected drastically through no fault of your own, life can seem very unfair. The only offers that our customer was getting from 3rd party brokers were very unattractive indeed. It was only through a monumental effort, due diligence and our in-depth market knowledge that FCF secured a prime lending rate.

This go-getting entrepreneur had already bought a car through Fast Car Finance. Now he was interested in a supercar with a price tag to match. He knew that we had looked after him before and trusted us to do the same with this very special purchase. He had a fantastic credit rating and wanted a financial arrangement with a balloon at the end to reduce the cost of his monthly outgoings.

He was thrilled with his purchase and his financial arrangement.

Supercar finance delivered with a personal touch.

A returning customer, our client is actively growing his collection of classic and sports cars and he approached us again to assist with his latest acquisition. The challenge was not only to find a suitable finance company that would be prepared to fund a 1950’s appreciating classic car, we also needed to secure a competitive rate of interest. This we achieved and at a compelling 7.4% APR

This customer was referred to us by a well-respected Independent Super Car Dealer. Their customer was was self-employed which could have been a stumbling block. But due to Fast Car Finance’s diligence, we were able to assemble all the relevant supporting history and financial records relating to bank accounts and some background credit information. This having been done – we were able to use his business credentials to support the size of the loan. The offer was secured the following day.
