People you know.

Not call centres.

Have you ever tried to build a relationship with a call centre? Not easy, is it?

Our approach is different. It’s based on getting to know our clients really well, so we can give them what they need, when they need it. When you call, we’ll be the people who answer.

With over fifty years of solid combined experience in the motor and finance industry, we’re able to provide completely independent, impartial advice. At the same time we’ve built close working relationships with motor manufacturers – for all makes and models up to prestige, top of the range cars – as well as light commercial vehicles.

We also work closely with the UK’s leading Finance Companies in Contract Hire, and Fleet and Fuel Management, enabling us to offer cost effective and flexible funding.

We understand the importance of price – so we stay very competitive. We know you need consistency, dependability and stability – so we make sure we’re quick and professional.

Nick Stableford

Martin Bradbury

And we keep it personal – from the first face-to-face meeting through the full term of the contract. 85% of our business comes from existing clients and referrals. People like what we do.

The expertise you need. The way you want it.

We tailor what we do to the needs of individual clients. But our aim is always to provide a cost-effective and flexible service that gives great value for money.

It often starts with helping to find the right vehicle at the best available price.

We do the hunting for you based on your budget, preferences and specification.

Then we arrange a finance package from a wide range of options that meets your needs exactly. You get a clear, transparent quote with no hidden extras - fast. You get the flexibility over timescales and deposits. And we make sure that the approval and delivery process is as speedy and efficient as possible. We do the chasing.

If you need it, we can provide expert advice on a whole range of specialised issues – from cost-effective fleet policy, whole life running costs and fuel choice to company car taxation, employee “cash for cars” schemes and directors’ opt-outs.

We can also negotiate special single-marque deals with motor manufacturers.

Financing can be complex. We make it simple.

Depending on what you need, we can advise on and arrange the scheme that’s right for you, from a wide choice of finance facilities. And we promise to talk in plain English.

Business contract hire

Personal contract purchase

Fully maintained contracts

This is “fixed cost motoring” where you make a monthly payment, with or without maintenance. The leasing company owns the vehicle.

At the end of the agreed period you give it back.

It doesn’t appear on your balance sheet.

This is the same as business contract purchase, but personal to a private individual.

Whatever scheme you choose, we offer the option of covering all routine maintenance including scheduled servicing and replacement tyres.

Personal contract hire This is the same as business contract hire, but personal to a private individual.

Business contract purchase Here again, you hire a vehicle for an agreed period and make regular payments.

The difference between this and contract hire is that you have the option of buying the vehicle at the end of the contract. This is sometimes called a balloon payment.

The vehicle usually appears on your balance sheet.

PVS broch for print v1.indd 5

Hire purchase This involves an initial deposit, followed by monthly payments over an agreed period. You own the vehicle at the end of the contract, but in this case the final payment is not a guaranteed figure.

The vehicle usually appears on your balance sheet.

Finance Lease Mainly used for commercial vehicles, this can often be a tax-efficient option.

You don’t have to pay all the VAT upfront. The vehicle usually appears on your balance sheet.

Com merci al vehicles? We love them!

Here’s an area where we’re real experts.

As well as sourcing and financing standard light commercial vehicles, we can help with pretty much any specialised need.

Whether you’re looking for courier, chiller or freezer vans, builders’ vans with racking and roof racks, glass frails, dropside and tipper conversions, Luton bodies, cages, special storage, electrics, compressors, or any other special option – we can do it.

We’re experienced in the needs of builders, craftsmen, tradesmen, butchers, fresh food suppliers, florists, chilled food suppliers, vets, plumbers, electricians and heating engineers.

In all cases we can build and fit to your spec, and make sure you get exactly what you’re looking for - at the right price.

Green is good.

Really good.

Interested?

What’s next?

As well as playing a part in helping to look after the environment, a green approach can save you money with greater fuel efficiency and lower CO2 emissions. We can advise on greener fleet policies including cost-effective choice of vehicles, fuel consumption, emissions – and even telematics.

Claire Hinton, Member Services Manager, West Midlands Police Federation “As a member services provider, Prospectus are helping us with very good deals both on cars and finance. This means we can provide an extra benefit for members because we didn’t have anyone offering this combined service before. They cover all makes and models at really competitive prices, and if someone isn’t sure what car to go for they’ll help them find the best option. The service is very good, and they’re nice people to work with.”

Mike Jeynes, UK-NSI Co Ltd, Financial Accountant “Quality standards are critical to everything we do, so we ask a lot of our suppliers.

Controlling the cost of our fleet is also important, so we really appreciate the way that Prospectus take care of the hard work of finding the best prices available. Martin is easy to work with, and the service is always excellent, friendly and helpful.”

Gerard Wilson, Soleco UK Ltd (Florette), Logistics Manager “I’ve worked with Nick at Prospectus for a number of years now, so he’s got a very good understanding of what we look for. He’s proactive in reminding us when a contract is coming to an end, and really good at finding us the best deals on vehicles and financing.

I think personal service is important so I value the face-to-face contact. Prospectus are easy to get on with – and always prepared to do that little bit extra.”
