2. Whose products do we offer?
Matt Johnson Prestige Ltd is a Credit Broker not a Lender and can introduce you to a limited number of lenders and finance products to assist with your vehicle purchase.

We are not an independent financial advisor and do not make recommendations, however, we will provide you with information on products which may suit your requirements based on information you disclose, to assist you in making an informed decision on your purchase.
Our approach is to introduce you first to MotoNovo Finance. If they are unable to make you a finance offer, we will inform you and request your permission to submit a proposal to another of our lenders. Please ask for a list of our funding partners.

However, any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned.
