Worked out a credit limit and a rate within my budget

Didn't have good credit but was able to work out a plan, I was between a couple of cars and the one I picked was newer and higher spec, due to this i got a better rate and over a year less still within my monthly budget Reviewed on: 26th April 2026

Friendly and professional customer service, had pleasure to communicate with Omar from this company. Explained all process and prompt acceptance for car finance. Constantly in contact when was necessary , I would say above and beyond even. All process was quick and car was ready to collect clean and checked. All paperwork was ready and as I was travelling from far they undestood that i can't specify exact time of arrival to collect car so very flexible. Highly recommended as professional and also friendly approach to customer. Reviewed on: 25th April 2026
