UK Auto Loan Delinquency Rates

Goals

Identify 30 and 90 day delinquency rates for auto loans in the United Kingdom (specifically, the percentage of the outstanding balance that is 30 days delinquent and 90 days delinquent), in order to create an estimation of how much of the total delinquent balances can be recovered by debt collection services. These auto loans should be to individuals, not businesses.
