At Motor Loans R Us, we aim to make vehicle finance simple, transparent, and accessible, whether you have excellent credit, are self-employed, or have experienced credit challenges in the past.
In this guide, we’ll explain exactly how finance works with Motor Loans R Us, what types of finance are available, and how we help you secure the right deal.
Step-by-Step: How Finance Works at Motor Loans R Us
Getting vehicle finance through Motor Loans R Us is designed to be straightforward and customer-focused.
1. Apply Online
The process starts with a quick online application.
You provide basic details such as:
- Your name, contact information and address
- Employment details
- Income information
- The type of vehicle you’re looking for
This allows us to begin assessing your eligibility for finance.
2. Soft Credit Check (No Impact on Your Score)
We carry out a soft credit check, which means:
- It does not affect your credit score
- It helps us understand your credit profile
- It allows us to match you with suitable lenders
Many people worry about damaging their credit score when applying for finance, but a soft check avoids this problem.
3. Lender Matching
Once we understand your profile, we match you with lenders most likely to approve your application.
Motor Loans R Us works with a wide panel of lenders, including
- Prime lenders
- Near-prime lenders
- Specialist lenders
This allows us to help a wide range of customers, including those with:
- Excellent credit
- Limited credit history
- Past credit issues
- Unconventional professions
4. Approval Decision
Once your application is reviewed by the lender, you will receive a decision.
If approved, you’ll typically receive details including:
- Your finance limit
- Your monthly payment estimate
- Available finance options
- Whether a deposit is required
Motor Loans R Us can arrange both no-deposit and low-deposit options, depending on your circumstances and lender criteria.
5. Choose a Vehicle From Any Reputable Dealer
One of the biggest advantages of using Motor Loans R Us is that you are not tied to a single dealership.
Once approved, you can shop with confidence knowing:
- Your budget is already agreed
- Your monthly payments are clear
- You know what you can comfortably afford
This allows you to visit any reputable dealer and choose the vehicle that fits your lifestyle and budget.
Many customers find this helpful because it lets them compare vehicles without worrying about finance at the same time.
6. Sign Your Finance Documents
Once you’ve chosen your vehicle, the lender prepares your finance agreement.
You will review and sign documents that outline:
- Your monthly payments
- Agreement length
- Interest rate
- Total payable amount
Motor Loans R Us ensures everything is clearly explained before you sign.
7. Drive Away
Once documents are signed and the dealer is paid, you can collect your vehicle and drive away.
It’s that simple.
Types of Vehicle Finance
Motor Loans R Us offers several finance options to suit different situations.
Hire Purchase (HP)
Hire Purchase is one of the most straightforward forms of finance.
You:
- Pay a deposit (optional in some cases)
- Make fixed monthly payments
- Own the vehicle once the final payment is made
This option is popular for customers who want clear payments and full ownership at the end.
Personal Contract Purchase (PCP)
PCP often offers lower monthly payments compared to Hire Purchase.
At the end of the agreement, you can choose to:
- Pay a final balloon payment and keep the vehicle
- Return the vehicle
- Trade it in for another vehicle
Lease Purchase (LP)
Lease Purchase is similar to Hire Purchase but typically includes a larger final balloon payment.
This can reduce monthly payments while still giving you the option to own the vehicle at the end.
Personal Loans
In some cases, a personal loan can be used to purchase a vehicle outright.
This means:
- You own the vehicle immediately
- Finance is not secured against the vehicle
What Vehicles Can Be Financed?
Motor Loans R Us doesn’t just finance cars.
We can arrange finance for a wide range of vehicles, including:
- Cars
- Vans
- Motorhomes
- Caravans
- Motorbikes
This flexibility makes it easier for customers to find finance for both everyday vehicles and lifestyle purchases.
Can I Get Finance With Bad Credit?
Yes, many customers are surprised to learn that they can still get approved for finance even if their credit history isn’t perfect.
Motor Loans R Us works with lenders who specialise in helping customers with:
- Low credit scores
- Missed payments
- Defaults
- CCJs
- Limited credit history
Every application is assessed individually.
Why Use Motor Loans R Us?
Many people go directly to a dealership for finance, but using a broker like Motor Loans R Us can offer significant advantages.
More Lender Options
Because we work with a panel of lenders, we can often find options that a single dealership cannot.

This means you can walk into a showroom knowing:
- Your monthly payment range

- Whether the vehicle fits your budget
It also helps you factor in other ownership costs like insurnace, fuel, and maintenance.
