New Car Loan

New Car Loan - General Resource and Tips about Car Loans:
- If you want a bargain but don't have the time or inclination to research the market yourself, consider using a broker. You'll pay for their services, but they know the market well so they may be able to find you the deal you want.
- If you have significant savings earning a low interest rate, consider making a large down payment or even paying for the car in cash. This could save you as much as several thousand dollars in finance charges.
- If you have a poor credit rating you might be tempted by pawnbrokers or moneylenders but beware of the high interest rates they charge. Only spend what you can afford and look at how much you are paying in interest for your car.
- Consider Importing a car. Some cars are significantly cheaper abroad and there can be great bargains to be found, even after all the costs of shipping and registering a car have been taken into account.

New Car Loan - Glossary of Terms:

A variable interest rate may rise and fall in line with any changes to the bank base rate. This could result in your monthly repayments changing during the term.

A set interest rate is offered to all successful applicants, regardless of the risk they present and the loan amount and term.

APR, or the Annual Percentage Rate, is a measure of the true cost of a loan or other finance. As well as measuring the amount of interest charged, the APR figure includes most other additional costs involved.

Total Charge for Credit - This is the full amount that you will be required to pay. It includes the loan amount advanced, interest chargeable plus any administrative fees and costs, as well as any insurance costs.

Equity - This is the difference between the value of your car and what you have left to pay off the loan.

This describes the amount the borrower is behind in their loan repayments schedule. The amount is usually measured in either pounds or months.
