MoneyBarn - Car Conditional Sale

Hi everyone, when I started my job I took out a car on a Conditional Sale agreement with moneybarn at 34.4% APR (Yes, stupid I know), I currently pay £228.11 a month over 4 years, I started it on 21/02/2013
So far I've paid £2,188.03 and have £8,668.18 left to pay.
Want I wanted to know was if I make lump-some payments such as £300 extra a month would this reduce my capital I owe and in turn reduce how much interest I get charged? (A rebate?)
I just took out a £2,000 loan with Ratesetter and cleared all my old debts and now pay a nice £62 a month at 11% APR on those so I want to throw as much cash as possible at moneybarn however when I spoke to their advisor on the phone they said you only get a rebate on a full settlement and not partial early settlements.
Any help would be great

That's going to depend entirely on the small print in your loan agreement in respect of making overpayments - some lenders will let you and some won't - some will let you make overpayments of as much as you want and some will restrict it - impossible for anyone to tell you without looking at your agreement. Have you looked?0

I have looked however none of it makes any sense to me, I can upload a pic of the small print if needed.0
