Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers

“The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. Go Car Credit Limited has reported a loss before tax of £0.9m for the year to 31 March 2025 (2024: £7.4m profit before tax) and net current assets of £3.1m (2024: net current liabilities £8.2m), it has net liabilities of £20.9m (2024: net liabilities of £20.0m). The Directors have prepared cash flow forecasts for the period ending 31 December 2026 which indicate that, taking account of reasonable possible downsides, the company will have sufficient funds, through funding from its ultimate parent company, Carfico Limited, to meet its liabilities as they fall due for that period.”

Significant events
- “In August 2025, the Supreme Court judgment on commission disclosure has brought much-needed clarity to the market and the FCA is expected to announce its proposal for a redress scheme. Given the judgment and the FCA's statements on the matter, the company does not consider there to be any material liability with respect to commission disclosure.”
- “Subsequent to the year end, the directors have taken the decision to close the Company's vehicle retail site. The closure is expected to be completed by 31 March 2026.”
