Owning a classic car is a dream for many, but the costs associated with these treasured vehicles can be significant. At Happy Motor Finance, we provide flexible financing solutions to help you spread the cost of purchasing your dream car. By comparing multiple lenders, we ensure you get the best deal tailored to your circumstances.

About Our Classic Car Finance Service

Our classic car finance service is designed to make your dream of owning a classic vehicle a reality. We work with a panel of trusted lenders to find the best financing options for both new and existing customers. Whether you’re looking to buy a classic car or refinance an existing loan, our dedicated team is here to assist you.

Financing Options

We offer two main types of classic car financing:

  • Personal Contract Purchase (PCP): With PCP, you pay lower monthly instalments and have the option of making a final balloon payment at the end of the term to keep the car.
  • Hire Purchase (HP): HP involves higher monthly payments, but once the term ends, you own the car outright.

How Classic Car Finance Works

Steps to Finance Your Classic Car

  1. Get a Quote: Start with a free, no-obligation quote to understand your financing options.
  2. Choose Your Classic Car: Select a classic car within your budget and approved by our lenders.
  3. Submit Your Application: Provide the necessary documents for a quick approval process.
  4. Drive Away: Once approved, you can enjoy your classic car while making manageable monthly payments.

Required Documents

  • Personal Information: Name, date of birth, and employment status.
  • Proof of Identity: Valid ID or passport.
  • Proof of Income: Recent payslips or bank statements.
  • Address History: Proof of address for the past few years.

Refinancing Your Classic Car Loan

If your financial situation has changed since you first took out HP or PCP finance, refinancing could be a great solution. Here are some reasons why you might consider refinancing:

Benefits of Refinancing

  • Lower Monthly Repayments: Secure a loan with cheaper monthly payments and a longer repayment period if you’re struggling with your current repayments.
  • Improved Credit Score: If your credit score has improved, refinancing could mean securing a loan with a lower interest rate, reducing your monthly payments or the total amount payable.
  • Manageable Balloon Payments: For those nearing the end of a PCP agreement, taking out a loan to cover the balloon payment can help you keep your classic car without a large one-off payment.

To find out if refinancing is right for you, contact one of our finance specialists for a personalised consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Was not expecting to be looking for another car so soon... and this was at no faulty of Happy motors... They handled the issue with my first car rapidly. Damian, Leon on the day of the bad event went above and beyond to rectify the issue and dealt with the dealership. This meant that Kirsty had to put up with me once again to find another car... and bless her understanding and patience again for dealing with me haha! I eventually found my car, and again Kirsty and happy motors were superb, quick and efficient fro. Auto trader add to the car being at my door... superb. I recommend this team to anyone and will spread their name far and wide.. and sorry to say Kirsty... I will definitely be back again without doubt or hesitation.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Kirsty at Happy Motor Finance to secure financing for my new car, and I am beyond impressed with the service I received. From the moment we connected, Kirsty was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and attentive to my needs. They took the time to explain all the financing options available to me, ensuring that I could make an informed decision.What stood out the most was their commitment to finding the best possible Car, rates and terms that fit my financial situation. Kristy navigated through the paperwork with ease, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. A couple of times I was feed up and wanted to give up but Kirsty reassured me that this will workout in the end. Thanks to Kirsty's expertise and dedication, I am able to drive away in my dream car with a financing plan that works for me. I highly recommend Kirsty from Happy Motor Finance to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive finance company and representative. Thank you, Kirsty, for your outstanding service! I appreciate You😊
