Our partners say ...

We couldn’t have done it without Close Brothers Motor Finance – we used it (Funding) to build our stock, and we’re now looking to enhance our own site and possibly open up a second site. We also won an award for the Fastest growing Dealership in the UK– we couldn’t have done this without Close Brothers Motor Finance Funding.
