“At £55bn the used car market is the largest retail market in the UK however it has yet to see the same digital transformation witnessed in all other retail sectors. It’s our aim to use technology to revolutionise the way people buy and own cars. We’re excited to have seen such growth. To generate nearly £3 billion in car finance applications and 600% growth in sales in one year is an amazing achievement. It’s a testament to our vision of what a finance company needs to be in this fast changing landscape, and to our team’s passion to deliver an offering that can really shape customer lives by getting them into great cars as simply as possible. These are exciting times, and we’ve only just started.”
