Used Car Loans

Used Car Loans - General Tips and Tips about Financing for Cars:
- Before you take out a car loan you'll need to work out how much you can comfortably afford to pay each month.
- When applying for a car loan, your income and financial commitment details are collated to determine a credit rating to see whether or not you can afford to take on the Loan.
- Many lenders specialize in loans to individuals with bad credit, so you might be able to get a loan even if you have declared bankruptcy or have county court judgements against you in the past.
- The amount borrowed is subject to an interest charge, and the interest rate applied is known as the Annual Percentage Rate (APR).

Used Car Loans - Glossary of Terms:

Interest Rates are how Lenders make money on your loan - they will charge a certain percentage of your outstanding loan, which will be added to the loan balance. Interest rates are usually quoted as the APR.

A fixed interest rate will stay the same throughout the term of the loan, regardless of any changes in the bank base rate. This means your monthly repayments should always stay the same, allowing you to budget accurately.

If a borrower has a history of poor credit usage then this is described as Adverse Credit. Poor Credit history can include County Court Judgements(CCJ), Bankruptcy, Mortgage arrears or any late payments on credit arrangements.

Unsecured personal loans are offered by lending institutions such as banks and building societies and are so called because the lender requires no security for the debt.

Credit Report: Credit bureaus collect information about your credit history-where you owe money, how much you owe, your credit cards, and your payment history.

Negative equity - If your car is worth less than the amount you have left to pay off the loan.
