The practical answer
Possibly, but repairs and replacement components are not assessed in the same way as a complete vehicle purchase.
Provide the repairer’s itemised quote, warranty, truck details and existing finance position. Explain expected remaining life after the work and compare the cost with buying a replacement truck.
A component fitted to a financed vehicle can raise ownership and consent issues. Ask what funding structure is available rather than assuming the repair can be added to the existing HP balance.
Commercial finance is subject to status, lender approval and the specific asset and transaction. The right structure depends on the complete circumstances of the business.
What should I do next?
Have the asset details, supplier information and an outline of what the business needs ready. DCF can then discuss the requirement and identify which lenders may be suitable.
