Did you know that 95% of all new vehicle buying journeys start online? Wouldn’t it be nice if they could end there too! 

Vehicle Buying Is Online

There has been a rapid shift in how consumers purchase vehicles and the appetite for e-commerce is the highest it’s ever been. If you’re not online where your customers are, you can bet someone else will be.

Meet Customer Expectations

We recognise this creates a challenge for OEMs, Dealers, and leasing companies. There’s a capability gap which, until now, could not be filled without relying on overpriced agencies. That’s where Autorama comes in - through a blended tech and human approach, we provide the full service solution to ensure you’re where your customers are and can give them the seamless online experience they’ve come to expect.

Dedicated To Innovation & Improving Customer Experience

AA Orange Background.jpg

Andy founded Autorama in 2004 with a clear vision - leasing made easy and accessible with smaller deposits, affordable monthly payments and no lump sums. Convenience, value and choice have remained at the heart of the business ever since. 
 
Initially a used-car retail venture, Andy, with just three employees in one porta cabin, built the business from the ground up before branching out into the van leasing market in 2007 – when Autorama’s most well-known brand, Vanarama, was born. 
 
Andy’s passion for providing outstanding customer service has underpinned every aspect of Autorama since day one. As he has expanded the business,and invested heavily in both the brand and the infrastructure behind it, the customer has remained key. This can been seen in both the award-winning ad-campaigns, putting Britain’s hardworking business drivers first, and also with nationwide sponsorship of grass-roots and national league football. Under Andy’s leadership, Autorama has supported Britain’s drivers both at work, and at leisure and there’s no plan to slow down anytime soon.

Based on their credit information and providers’ lending criteria, we can score their eligibility without affecting their credit score.



## How Does It Help Customers?


Customers in the market for a brand-new vehicle are often unaware of their credit eligibility status. The Eligibility Checker gives them free access to a soft search without affecting their credit score. They get an instant answer on how likely it is they’ll be eligible for credit, so they have all the information they need to inform their purchase decision upfront. They can also rest easy that by using the Autorama tool, their data will not be shared with third parties.



## How Does It Help You?


The Eligibility Checker not only aids conversion, but also allows transparency in the data funnel, giving you the ability to identify users most likely to complete to sale.

Eligibility Checker reduces cost and time to serve by allowing the analysis and funnelling of users through to the correct customer journey. Eligible customers can be prioritised to sale and ineligible customers can get the help they need through a more complex customer cycle. If there are multiple credit lines available, it also allows you to identify and personalise the journey for customer based on which lines they’ll most likely be accepted for.

Through data, we can confirm that users are 3 times more likely to order a vehicle after having used the Eligibility Checker tool.



## How Does It Work?


Using the latest in-house tech, the Eligibility Checker accesses data within a set finance criteria from one of the largest credit agencies in the UK. With this information it then performs a soft search, scoring users on their likelihood of obtaining credit without affecting their credit score.
