Half-Year Review: A Record-Breaking Start to 2026

A 5-minute read

We’ve just hit the halfway point of 2026, and it’s already shaping up to be the strongest year in Oracle Car Finance’s history. From record-breaking months to another industry award and a growing team, here’s a look back at what we’ve achieved in the first six months, and the numbers behind it.

Highlights So Far

Our busiest month on record. March 2026 was our biggest month to date, with more prestige, sports, and classic cars financed than in any previous month in the company’s history.

Six wins in seven years. We were invited back to the Specialist Car Finance Awards for the seventh year running, and took home Best Specialist Car Finance Provider for the sixth time in the last seven years. It’s a result of consistent work from every part of the team, and one we’re genuinely proud of.

Life in the fast lane. In June, our Account Managers were invited to the Supercar Driver Secret Meet at Silverstone by one of the specialist lenders on our panel, the kind of invitational event most people never get near, let alone their finance broker. It’s a good example of what these relationships actually give you: when your broker is genuinely embedded in this world, they don’t just process an application, they understand the cars, the market, and what a fair deal on a 911 GT3 or a Ferrari actually looks like.

That access runs deeper with Porsche specifically. We’re the Official Vehicle Finance Partner of Porsche Club Great Britain, and this year that saw us at Harewood Hillclimb in Leeds, one of the best-loved events on the Club’s calendar. A perk worth knowing about; we regularly invite valued customers to join us at Porsche Club events like Harewood. If that’s of interest, have a word with your Account Manager, we’d love to see you there!

If you’re considering buying a Porsche, talk to us first. We specialise in funding Porsches, new or used, from any UK dealer, private seller, or auction, and because of our partnership with the Club, we get an insider’s view of the market that a generalist lender simply won’t have.

Growing the team. Since the start of the year, we’ve been busy recruiting talented individuals for our Sales team, with a pool of fantastic new graduates joining as Account Executives this August. Combined with other hires across the business this summer, this takes our sales team to over 50 people, working across three sites in the UK. More expertise, more availability, and faster response times for our customers as demand keeps climbing.

The Numbers: H1 2026 in Figures

Nearly 2,000 agreements and £141.5 million funded in six months reflects not just growth, but the breadth of what we do, spanning 66 different manufacturers, from everyday marques to some of the most sought-after performance and classic cars on the road.

Top 5 Brands by Demand

Porsche is the standout name of H1 2026, accounting for 377 funded vehicles, close to one in every five agreements we secured. That puts them comfortably ahead of second-placed Land Rover on 287 units. Together, our top five brands, Porsche, Land Rover, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Audi represent 60.9% of the total £141.5m million we funded this half: 1,305 vehicles worth approximately £86.2 million.

German manufacturers feature heavily in that mix, with Porsche, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Audi collectively responsible for more than 1,000 vehicles between them. It’s also worth noting the strength of demand at the very top of the market, Ferrari, Aston Martin, and Lamborghini all placing in our top 10 by volume points to a healthy appetite among our customers for genuinely exotic metal, not just prestige SUVs and saloons.

Looking Ahead

Six months in, the pattern is clear: more agreements, more vehicles funded, and more brands than ever before, backed by another major industry award and a growing team to match. As we move into the second half of the year, the focus stays the same, matching the right customers with the right lenders, and continuing to build on what’s already been a landmark year for Oracle Car Finance.
