Finance Roll

So the time has come to purchase a car. A big decision in anybody's life and one we have to make sometimes far too often. That being said it is also a great time of excitement for the prospective new car owner regardless of whether you're buying a brand new Rolls Royce or something a little less ostentatious.

Of course the key to purchasing your new pride and joy is having the required funds necessary to make that new dream machine a reality in the drive way. But don't forget the extras that always go with any new car, those being insurance and road fund licence as well as the obligatory air freshener, key ring and new mats to complement your new ride. So remember when you're budgeting for your new wheels not to forget the essential extras.

So what is the right car loan or finance for you, well that's a question that requires any prospective purchaser to do there homework and see what is out there. Don't just take the offer of finance put on the table by the dealer trying to sell you the car. Remember these guys are trying to get the maximum profit from their sale to you so you may find the repayments are not in your favor. More often than not the APR offered by dealer finance is highly uncompetitive when compared to your average 'High Street' lender. The main thing you gain from dealer finance is not having to go elsewhere to arrange a loan. You should still get a warranty if it's included with the car and any other perks the dealer is offering.

So where do I go for a better APR rate than the dealer? Well the first place is the high street as said before. Banks & Building society's have loan rates for any purpose that are usually much more competitive and if you get one with our own Bank or Building society they will know you and may offer you great repayment deals.

But the real goldmine for car buyers anywhere is of course the internet, with a global marketplace lenders can loan anyone anywhere any product they like. This makes for a highly competitive market where all the lenders can complete for your business and are quite literally falling over each other to offer you the best deal and gain your custom.

Remember when you take out any form of finance or loan that you are responsible for any contract you sign up for and so you must always read the small print and make sure you understand any contract you enter into fully.

Take your time find out the deal with the APR and repayments to suit you. But most of all get the financial side right first off and then leave yourself free to enjoy your new purchase. Happy motoring.
