Buying checklist

Once you have a better knowledge of the range of products available, these pages will help you understand a bit more about the process of applying for motor finance.

If you are a business user, you should seek professional advice.


There are many ways to arrange your finance - see Where to get motor finance - but always ask about the finance options from the dealership when you are choosing the type of car you want. 

You should also consider a Car History Check which could reveal important information on a vehicle’s background before you buy it.

What to take

If you arrange your motor finance at the dealership where you are buying the car, it may be possible to drive away the same day. However, by law, the dealer and lender will have to make certain credit and identity checks.

What to ask

You may want to ask the dealer some questions.
