The vehicle supply chain works very much in the same way.

The finance company or broker will be given discount terms with the manufacturer on the basis that they are committed to doing large volumes of business. This can apply to a specific model or across the range. This discount is applied to the vehicle and bingo, you have an unbeatable deal.

Who could benefit from using a vehicle Broker?

The short answer is anyone.

however, due to changes in vehicle taxation is has become more and more popular to

‘opt out' of the company car scheme. This has prompted many finance companies to open up deals to private users.

Once you have decided on the deal, subject to finance approval, your vehicle will be ordered with the finance company and supplying dealership.
