I’m really interested in buying a car through the scheme. Should I go and talk to the dealer or speak to BASC first?
If you are unsure, speak to us. However, we are confident our established dealers will apply the correct discount.

No, these are dealer-fitted options… but you should always try to negotiate!
No, it’s new vehicles only. Used vehicles are owned by the dealers and not subject to manufacturer support.
Usually ex-VAT, so the benefit is worth even more if you can’t reclaim VAT.
No. We can currently offer superb discounts on family cars from Ford, Toyota, Mazda, Honda, Volvo and Lexus – and we hope to have more models in future.
This is always between you, your accountant and HMRC – it’s not really our business!
This is handled by the participating dealers during the quotation. BASC is not a licensed credit broker and cannot advise on finance schemes.
Possibly yes. To prevent trading, manufacturers are generally restricting members to one vehicle per year. However, this can be waived if we are satisfied that any extra vehicle is for the member’s personal, business or family use.
No. All payments are made to participating dealers. BASC’s role in all cases is simply to verify that the individual is eligible to access the scheme.
