Blue Motor Finance Car Finance: How It Works, Rates & Alternatives
Independent explainer — we don't sell Blue Motor Finance, take no commission and route only to our own free calculators.
Blue Motor Finance is a UK direct lender that funds car finance arranged through dealers and brokers, mainly on used cars. It lends its own money and is authorised and regulated by the FCA. Work out the true cost of any Blue Motor-style deal on our free car finance calculator.
This page explains, independently, how a Blue Motor agreement tends to work, the products on offer and how it compares.
Who is Blue Motor Finance?
Blue Motor is a direct lender, not a broker — it provides the funds itself, usually for used cars bought through a partner dealer or broker.
Because Blue Motor lends its own money, the agreement is between you and Blue Motor. It must be FCA-authorised and run an affordability check before lending.
What products does Blue Motor offer?
Blue Motor typically provides Hire Purchase (HP) on used cars, where you pay off the whole price and own the car at the end.
- Hire Purchase (HP): own the car after the final payment — see the HP calculator.
- Used-car focus: agreements are usually tied to a used car from a partner dealer.
- Fixed monthly payments: the rate and term are set at the start.
What rates and eligibility does Blue Motor look at?
Your Blue Motor rate depends on your credit profile and the car, not a single advertised figure — the APR is set after a credit and affordability check.
Rather than rely on a headline rate, turn any quote into its real cost with our APR calculator, which shows the total interest in pounds. A stronger credit file and a bigger deposit generally cut the rate.
How Blue Motor compares — your alternatives
Blue Motor is one of several used-car finance lenders; the cheapest option is whichever has the lowest APR over the shortest term you can afford.
Compare on the total amount payable, not the monthly. Check the figures on the main calculator before you decide.
| Option | Own the car? | Typical use | Compare on |
|---|---|---|---|
| HP (Blue Motor-style) | Yes, at the end | Used cars via a dealer | HP calculator |
| PCP | Optional (balloon) | Lower monthly | PCP calculator |
| Personal loan | From day one | Buying from any seller | Loan calculator |
Work out the true cost before you commit
Whatever a Blue Motor agreement quotes, you can check the real cost yourself for free.
Run the numbers on the car finance calculator, compare deals on the APR calculator, or model an HP deal directly.
If your existing Blue Motor agreement may have carried hidden commission, read whether it could have been mis-sold and estimate any redress — free, with no claims firm taking a cut.
