Vauxhall and Chevrolet, as does Santander Consumer Finance.
GMAC UK was once the captive finance provider

‘The tools they need’
US Tariffs are shifting - will you react or anticipate?
Don’t let policy changes catch you off guard. Stay proactive with real-time data and expert analysis.
By GlobalDataMembers of the car finance industry have
spoken before of the need to keep knowledge of finance up to speed
on the forecourt and the endorsement comes at a time when lack
of such knowledge has been
shown to exert perceived pressure on finance executives and two
recent surveys have
demonstrated customer preference for cash over finance.
Ed Paulat, chief operating officer of GMAC UK,
said the importance of dealer relationships meant the company “puts
a heavy focus on high quality training” which would “provide
dealers with the tools they need.”
Ruth Goymer, UK finance & insurance
training manager at GMAC UK, added the assessment process had given
the company “useful feedback…very much welcomed by everyone
involved in making our training for dealers a success.”
