Jaguar Land Rover and Black Horse have extended their partnership to provide finance for customers until at least the end of 2020.

This builds on the existing six-year arrangement that began in 2014.

As part of its strategic development, Black Horse will be transforming its business by investing in digital solutions to improve the car buying journey for both dealers and customers.

Jaguar Land Rover are doing likewise and this alignment is one of the reasons for the decision to extent the partnership.

Richard Jones, Black Horse managing director, said: “Our relationship with Jaguar Land Rover goes from strength to strength, and has played an important role for the Black Horse business over the last few years."

Jones said the extension of the contract with JLR came down to "tireless work" from collegagues in the Black Horse business and was also in recognition of the customer service the company provides.

Jeremy Hicks, UK managing director, Jaguar Land Rover said: “This is excellent news for our retailers and our customers as Black Horse continues to deliver a great service, helping to deliver a smooth car buying journey against a backdrop of evolving customer buying habits.”
