Finance Your Custom Van.


Buying a custom van outright isn't always the best use of cash. We can help you spread the cost of your purchase with a Hire Purchase agreement (with full ownership at the end) or with a PCP (with a balloon payment at the end). 


Most of our customers go for a Hire Purchase because they can claim tax deductions for the interest charges arising under the agreement, as well as capital allowances on the purchase price, making it a tax-efficient acquisition model. If you want to hand your van back and pay less, a PCP will be a better choice. 


We work with various lenders to get you the best rates every time. We are We are FCA regulated this can be found on the FCA's website under FRN: 947424. We are also an approved partner of the well known household brand Close brothers motor finance who we use exclusively. 

What You Get?

With a custom van from TMG, you get a high-quality modified van that uses OEM and OEM+ parts to stay true to the original marque's, as all elements of the build are done in one house by one team under one roof this ensures that quality is retained to the highest of standards which is reflected through our flawless trust pilot rating where by each review is vetted to ensure authenticity of content. 
We don't use cheap parts and cheap third-party products because the quality and style are questionable. We only use third-party products when they are verified by the marque community, such as genuine parts from TPS and paint mixing schemes by SYROX that are acknowledged for quality.
 By focusing on quality over price when modifying vans, we offer what we believe are the best custom vans money can buy. We believe in quality over quantity and all our vans leave flawless, we don't do story vans or have any secrets!

TRUSTPILOT

What Are OEM And OEM+?

OEM is an abbreviation of 'Original Equipment Manufacturer'. In the van world, it refers to the original producer of the vehicle's components. So, for example, the engine cover that comes with a 2.0 TDI van is the OEM engine cover. OEM+ (or OEM Plus) refers to modifications made to a van comprised of parts made by the Original Equipment Manufacturer, but not for that exact model. For example, VW Golf GTI seats in a VW Caddy are OEM+. OEM+ is not to be confused with third-party. 

Companies make third-party parts with no relationship to the original manufacturer. That isn't to say they are low-quality, but it does mean they are not original components. 

All our vans are built to OEM standards, and look in place and in keeping with the with the original line, however want to go crazy? We can also accomdate!

Warranty.

Your custom van will have a 6 month warranty which you can extend to longer if required. RAC provides our warranties. We have worked with RAC for several years and trust them fully to provide an excellent service. This also includes RAC breakdown cover as well as parts and garage cover.

 What this means is if you experience any problems with your van that are covered under warranty, This is all part of our commitment to excellent customer care. We want your custom van ownership experience to be as seamless as buying from a main dealer.
