New car finance rose 15% by volume
in May compared to the same period last year, with more than half
of all buyers using dealer finance, according to figures released
by the Finance & Leasing Association (FLA). The value of car
finance was £485m for May, up 20% on last year.

Paul Harrison, head of motor
finance at the FLA, said: “Dealers offering value-for-money deals
has meant that the amount of dealer finance provided to consumers
for new cars has grown by a fifth in the last 12 months compared
with the previous 12-month period.”
