Why Ruben from Bristol Chose Carmoola for Smarter Car Finance

Ruben knows the numbers. As an insurance broker and a busy dad, he was clear on what he needed: a reliable family car, a smart finance deal, and a lender that wouldn’t lock him into years of paying too much interest. When it came to car finance in Bristol, he found it all with Carmoola.

Ruben’s experience reflects his own personal journey with Carmoola.

Why did you choose Carmoola?

Ruben: “It's the interest rate that you offer, and I was also able to set the timings for myself that worked perfectly for me. I didn't want to be tied into any finance agreements that have like seven years... I wanted two years maximum, and you guys were able to offer me that."

It was about flexibility and control. Ruben knew that shorter terms meant lower interest overall and that transparency mattered.

Was budgeting important to you?

Ruben: "I didn't want to pay anything more than £200 a month, that was obviously with interest. Getting Carmoola and working it all out, it worked out about £192 a month, really. So just under budget, which is great."

What was your experience like with the app?

Ruben: "A few days before the money's set to leave your account, you do get notifications... just helps you to make sure you've got enough money in your account ready to go. It's a great way to keep on top of your finances, really."

How has the car changed your day-to-day life?

Ruben: "It has made it a lot easier to get around with the family. We have a three-year-old, so obviously dropping him to nursery, and then going to work. My missus works late as well... so it's made it a lot easier to get the family around, which is perfect."

Have you taken any trips in the car?

Ruben: "I picked up the missus from the airport. She went to Ghana to bring our three-year-old son. Saturday just gone, we went to Cannock to see family. We've got a family trip planned to Cambridge for Christmas."

What would you say to someone sceptical about Carmoola?

Ruben: "Go for it. It's a legit company, and they are able to cater to all your needs. Like I said, I wanted a two-year maximum finance agreement, and they were able to do that. The interest rates are great."

Who would you recommend Carmoola to?

Ruben: "I think it's anyone, really. If you want to buy a car on finance... families, or whoever you are."

Ruben’s story shows that when finance is fair, flexible, and transparent, everything gets easier.
