Bentley Financial Services was set up in 1999 to provide Bentley dealers with an in-house Finance Company to specialise in the funding of Bentley vehicles sold through Bentley Dealers. A centre of excellence has now been established in Milton Keynes with nearly 50% of all Bentleys sold in the UK being financed by BFS.
This has been a tremendous period of growth and the infrastructure has now been put in place to provide a full service both for the current Bentley range and for the launch of the new Bentley Continental GT later this year.
Since its formation BFS has continually been innovative in its approach to ensure that Bentley customers are offered finance related products that suit the specialised nature of this market place.
A recent innovation is the launch of an ideal solution for all would-be Continental GT owners and those who aspire to the Bentley Arnage range.
The campaign, called Solutions, offers Bentley customers the chance to drive a new Arnage R or T for 24 months, while their new Continental GT is being built, with a final payment guaranteed at 50% of the original selling price. Customers can drive away confident of the monthly repayment costs and of the optional guaranteed final payment in two years time. Available from Broughtons up to 31st March, the offer also includes a free 10,000-mile service. The customer chooses the deposit, offering complete flexibility – anything between 10%-50%.
At the end of the agreement three choices give even more control. The car can either be part exchanged for a new Bentley, the vehicle can be returned with nothing to pay or the optional final payment may be paid enabling the customer to keep his Arnage.
Keyman Insurance was launched last May offering the Bentley customer Life protection to the maximum value of £150,000 on Bentley Financial Services agreements together with disability benefits to the maximum value of £1,500 per month.
The most conventional choice to fund a Bentley is Lease Purchase – offering the simplicity of Hire Purchase but with a greater degree of freedom. The fundamental principle of Lease Purchase is to defer a major proportion of the vehicle’s repayment cost to the end of the agreement.
Bentley Financial Services still offer a Hire Purchase facility – the most understood method of vehicle funding in this country. After paying a deposit the balance is paid over an agreed period, normally between 12-48 months. When the payment period has been completed and all payments made (including the option to purchase fee of £40) the Bentley becomes the customer’s property to enjoy driving or part exchange for a new Bentley.
Bentley Financial Services is a quality business service comparable with any you would expect when making a decision on a high value personal or business purchase. All the advantages of maintaining cash flow and possible taxation benefits are available for either an individual or a business. As with the range of Bentley motor cars choice, pedigree and quality are the significant characteristics of the service on offer.
