“A colleague of mine was selling her car, and I needed a new one. I knew she’d really taken care of it, and it seemed like a very good deal. But to get financing from a bank was impossible! In the end, thank goodness someone told me about DirectAxis Private Vehicle Finance. The process was hassle-free – a very nice, knowledgeable consultant took me through all the paperwork, and my financing was approved 24 hours later.”

“I’ve always had a ‘thing’ about vintage cars. And I always scan the classifieds for great deals on cars that I could look at restoring. One Saturday – an ad literally leapt out at me for an old Bentley – in terrible condition, of course. Luckily I knew I could get financing through DirectAxis and I made the owner an offer. I’ve restored this grand old lady to superb condition and now people look at us wherever we go!”
