Luxury car finance provider Bridford Financial Solutions has opened two new offices in the South West and the Midlands.

The news comes as the Yorkshire-based firm continues to grow having enjoyed a record year in 2009 underwriting £25 million of finance and a first quarter in 2010 where £7.2 million was provided for franchised and independent dealerships.

Jonathon Oliver and Des Branson have been appointed to manage the sites in the South West and Midlands respectively.

Oliver has over 20 years' automotive experience in corporate and retail sales as well as specialist finance brokering and business management.

Branson takes control of the large Midlands area having spent several years working at the Audi dealership in Lincoln.
