All-electric

An all-electric vehicle runs solely on battery power and produces no tailpipe emissions while driving. It needs regular charging at home, work or public charge points.

Plug-in hybrid

A plug-in hybrid can complete suitable journeys using electric power, with a petrol engine available for longer travel. To gain the greatest benefit, it needs to be charged regularly.

Self-charging hybrid

A self-charging hybrid uses a petrol engine and electric motor, recovering energy while driving. It does not plug in and can travel for short periods using electric power in suitable conditions.

Mild hybrid

A mild hybrid uses electrical assistance to support the engine but cannot normally drive using electric power alone. It does not need to be plugged in.

Financial Disclosure

Mistsolar Limited T/A Waterton Motor Group is an Appointed Representative of ComplianceTrak Ltd who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No. 914597). ComplianceTrak Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Mistsolar Limited T/A Waterton Motor Group to act as a credit broker, not a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders, and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.
We are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a carefully selected panel of lenders, which includes Ford Credit. We act on behalf of the lender for this introduction and not as your agent. We are not impartial, and we are not an independent financial advisor.

Our approach is to introduce you first to Ford Credit, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next most suitable offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure a suitable finance agreement for you that enables you to achieve your financial objectives and which you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. If you purchase a vehicle, in the majority of cases, we will receive a commission from your lender for introducing you to them which is either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you purchase.

Different lenders pay different commissions for such introductions, and Ford Credit may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement; however, you will be contributing towards the commission paid to us with the interest collected on your repayments. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will inform you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receive this commission. The exact amount of commission that we will receive will be confirmed prior to you signing your finance agreement.

All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18s or over. Guarantees may be required.
