If you want to sell the vehicle, you must first settle your agreement in its entirety to become the legal owner. For a settlement quote, log in to your Close Online account.

We use our supporting dealer and broker network across the UK and Ireland to provide vehicle finance to customers. Once you've found the vehicle you'd like to buy, your dealer will be able to put together an application on your behalf to send to Close Brothers Motor Finance. We're often able to arrange your finance while you wait.

We don't specify a deposit as a fixed percentage of the total loan. Instead we treat each customer differently according to what they can afford. Your dealer will be able to advise you on this and propose a finance deal to suit your circumstances.

Every finance application we receive is reviewed by an experienced underwriter rather than relying on a credit score, allowing a more flexible approach. However, if you have a poor credit rating, it’s unlikely that we’ll be able to help you finance your vehicle. We’d always advise discussing your circumstances with your dealer who can suggest the best options for you.

Your fixed monthly payments will be agreed between yourself and Close Brothers Motor Finance (via your dealer) at a rate you're happy with. Monthly payments vary depending on how much you want to borrow, the size of your deposit and the loan period (usually between 12 – 60 months).

Interest rates change every so often, and your Close Brothers Motor Finance dealer will be able to provide you with the most competitive rate available according to your circumstances at the time you arrange the finance for your vehicle. Your interest rate will then be fixed for the duration of your finance agreement, so you’ll know exactly how much you’ll pay each month.
