Guaranteed car finance is a controversial subject. Whilst it is often promoted by car dealers and online brokers, it is also frowned upon by regulators. It is not uncommon for lenders to advertise ‘a guaranteed approval’ to tempt customers into applying for finance, only for the guarantee to fail to materialise.

I have a bad credit rating; can I still get a secured loan?

If you have a less than perfect record of repaying credit commitments, then you probably already know how difficult it can be at times to secure the finance you need. However, the good news is there are some who are more flexible with their criteria when it comes to credit rating, and will usually consider a much wider and severe range of credit issues. So if you are a potential borrower with an adverse credit history, or have previously had a CCJ registered against you; a personal or secured loan might be the answer you’re looking for.

Car loans are available through the form of both personal and secured loans. Whilst personal loans often require you to repay less overall with shorter loan terms, secured lenders often have more flexible lending criteria, and are usually more willing to offer loans to borrowers with bad credit ratings.

Suggest that you contact a mortgage broker who can analyse your personal circumstances and assist you a suitable finance option.
