What our customers say

I would highly recommend Charles & Dean for any business financing requirements. They went above and beyond to secure funding for 6 new lorries to aid us with bringing our haulage in house.

We found the rates that C&D are able to obtain are far more competitive than the mainstream lenders and their efficiency and customer service is second to none.

Charles & Dean are now our go to finance broker for any future expansion plans.”

  • Why do so many people finance their cars rather than buying them outright?
    ✅ Affordability and Budgeting Cars, especially new ones, can be very expensive. Financing allows you to spread the cost over a period of time suited to you, making it more manageable within your monthly budget. ✅ Depreciation Some modern cars can depreciate quickly. Financing allows you to avoid tying up a large amount of money in a depreciating asset. By financing, you can use your savings for other investments that might appreciate or offer better returns. ✅ Cash Flow Management By financing a car, you can keep more of your savings intact, providing a financial cushion for emergencies or other unexpected expenses. Charles & Dean clients often prefer to invest their money elsewhere such as stocks or businesses, where it can potentially grow rather than spending it all on a car. ✅ Upgrading Financing could allow you drive newer cars more frequently dependant on your term. Many PCPs are structured to allow upgrading to a new model every few years. ✅ Inflation and Economic Factors In times of inflation, financing at a fixed low interest rate can be advantageous as the real value of money borrowed decreases over time. In some economic climates, borrowing can be more favourable than spending cash reserves. ✅ Credit Building Financing a car can help individuals build or improve their credit history and credit score, as long as they make timely payments. This can be beneficial for securing future loans or mortgages.
  • What are the benefits of using Charles & Dean instead of dealing directly with a lender for car finance?
    ✅ Access to Multiple Lenders: We work with multiple lenders, providing access to a wider range of financing options than a single lender.

Whether you derive income from multiple sources such as investments, businesses, or anything else. Our specialists have experience funding vehicles for high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth individuals. ✅ Transparency and Support: Our team provide clear, detailed information about different financing options and associated costs, and offer support throughout the loan process, from application to approval and beyond. ✅ No Direct Cost to You: Charles & Dean is paid by the lenders, meaning you don't have to pay for our services directly.

  • How much deposit will I need?
    Charles & Dean clients typically place a deposit of 10-20% of total cost of the vehicle. However, this sum will depend on your unique financial situation and whether you are buying a new or used car. The more money you can put down as a deposit the less you’ll have to borrow and therefore the lower your monthly repayments will be, and the less interest you will pay over the duration of your agreement. Some of our clients will seek to put down the lowest possible deposit and use that capital in other income-generating areas.
  • What can be financed?
    We offer finance options for all vehicles over £25,000, including a wide range of supercars, prestige, and performance vehicles from renowned brands.

  • What interest rate will I be charged?
    There are many factors that will affect the rate you are charged. Fill out the contact form and a member of the team will discuss rates with you after understanding more about your financial situation and what you are planning to buy.
  • Will finance affect my credit rating?
    Our lender partners will need to carry out a full credit search when considering your application. This will leave a search on your credit file that is visible to other lenders. Although multiple searches in a short space of time can affect your ability to obtain credit, a manageable number of finance agreements, that are paid for in line with the agreement, can actually help to improve your credit rating.
