Types of Horsebox Finance

Hire Purchase

This is our most common form of finance package – this is where a minimum of 20% deposit is placed (the VAT) and the remainder of the value is spread over the finance term. Each monthly payment is fixed from the start, and at the end of the agreement you own the vehicle outright. This funding option which can be taken up to 7 years.

A balloon option of up to 65% is also available. Balloons are based on the future residual value of the horsebox, it adds flexibilty to the deal whereby you can upgrade your vehicle sooner than you were previously able to.

Business users can also claim 100% of interest offset again taxable profits and claim down yearly write-down allowances against the vehicle. As well as claiming back the VAT deposit.

Finance Lease

The lease option is very similar to a hire purchase, with only two differences: 1 – the VAT does not need to be placed as deposit – so as little as 5% can be put down. 2 – at the end of the contract a title transfer payment must be made (typically charged at the fixed monthly rental).

This is more flexible and VAT/Tax efficient, as each lease cost can be offset again pre tax profits, thus saving cira 20% per year for business users. With the only difference being the VAT is spread across the term, rather than paid upfront. Thereby aiding cash flow.

Terms can be arranged up to 7 years with minimal deposit, and balloons of up to 65%.

Add value

Buying a horsebox outright is a large investment, having the ability to spread the cost brings a number of benefits including having the ability to upgrade to a better standard of vehicle sooner than you might have been able to.

Balloon options

A balloon payment is a lump sum owed to the lender at the end of a finance agreement. Agreements with a balloon payment option typically result in lower monthly repayments, as you’re deferring part of the cost to the end of the contract.Vehicles are often worth more than the balloon payment because lenders typically set the balloon payment to be slightly less than what they expect the vehicle to be worth. This reduces the chances of an unexpected drop in values leaving them with vehicles that are worth less than the remaining finance balance.Balloon payments of up to 65% are available depending on the vehicle to help match the terms to your monthly budget.
