Types of finance for vans:
If you’re considering getting a used van on finance, there are a number of ways in which you could fund your next van. We specialise in hire purchase vans as it can be one of the most straightforward ways to get a van. Some lenders may require you to put down a deposit, but we do have some van finance no deposit options available for you! Within a hire-purchase agreement, you then pay back the loan in affordable payments each month over an agreed term. When you have made all the payments, at the end of your agreement, you will then own the van outright. Find out more about hire purchase and how it works.
If you want more flexibility from your van finance deal, you may consider financing a van through PCP. Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) is well known for giving the customer more freedom when it comes to getting a car or van. PCP cars tend to be the most popular but you can also use a PCP deal to get a van. Monthly payments tend to be lower as you don’t spread the cost of the value of the vehicle and instead cover the rate of depreciation.
Which documents do I need to finance a van?
Get your van finance application off to the best start by gathering all your documents before you apply. When you are matched with the lender that’s right for you, you will usually be asked to provide a few pieces of documentation. You will need to be able to prove your affordability and that you can afford to pay back your payments on time and in full. This is usually done by the lender requesting bank statements to verify your income. Each of our lenders has different regulations on which van finance documentation they require. The most common types of documents you may need to provide are a full UK driving licence, address history, bank statements, and bank details.

Can I get a used van on finance if I’m self-employed?
For many self-employed workers, having a car or van is essential to the day-to-day running of their business. It’s a common misconception that being self-employed means that you may struggle to prove your affordability. However, at UK Car Finance, we understand that your income is sometimes varied or not always paid into a bank account. If you receive cash in hand, it’s a good idea to deposit this into a UK bank account in the run-up to your application. You will usually be asked to provide 3 months’ worth of bank statements to prove your employment history and also how good you are at managing your money when applying for used van finance.

Is it possible to get guaranteed van finance?
Unfortunately, no van finance company or lender can offer you guaranteed van finance. There are certain van finance criteria that must be met before a lender can offer you a deal. Lenders could never offer guaranteed van finance as it goes against the rules of responsible lending. All lenders in the UK adhere to responsible lending practices to make sure they don’t lend to anyone who can’t afford to finance a van. Van finance companies who advertise finance as ‘guaranteed’ are misleading consumers into thinking anyone can be accepted and instead will depend on your affordability, credit score, employment status and more.
