Take part in our survey on finance companies to win an iPad or supercar driving day which closes today.

The 10-minute survey is designed to find out what dealers think of the manufacturer and independent companies that provide finance to consumers and to help the business.

Vouchers will be provided to dealers who represent the following brands: BMW, Citroen, Honda, Kia, Nissan, Peugeot, Renault, Toyota and Vauxhall.

In addition to receiving a voucher, they will also be put into a prize draw to receive an iPad or a choice of other prizes.

Results from the anonymous survey, carried out by AM's sister brand Sewells Research & Insight, will be used by the finance industry to improve the services and products offered to dealers.

Finance is a critical part of dealer operations and plays a vital role in maintaining and increasing profits in a tough market.

New car sales on finance grew 41% by value and 29% by volume year-on-year according to the latest figures.

In the new car finance market, the purchase of 66.6% of new cars by consumers over the last 12 months was supported by finance sold in dealerships.

There was also encouraging news in the used car market, where the number of cars financed was up by 17% in April and the value of finance by 12%.

John Maslen, brand director of Sewells Research & Insight said: “This is a very important period for dealerships, when maintaining and delivering every penny of profit is critical. Our independent research will be fed back to suppliers to make sure dealers get the service they need and the best products to drive profit.”

The survey has a range of prize choices on offer including:

Supercar experience day, iPhone 4S, New iPad, electric bike, Dell Laptop, £350 Amazon voucher, £350 John Lewis voucher, £350 Toys R Us voucher, Samsung Galaxy Note.

The prize draw will be made in August on completion of survey fieldwork.
