The Choice Between Buying A New or Used Car
The important question is : how much should I be spending in order to tick all the lender’s vehicle finance requirements and criteria off the checklist, and qualify to buy a new or used car?
Apart from having a good credit score, a deposit is always a good idea when it comes to financing a vehicle – the more you put down, the less your monthly vehicle finance repayments and the more car you can afford.

SAVINGS WITH A DEPOSIT
- Less interest
- More disposable income
- Quicker vehicle ownership
All the factors discussed will affect the price tag you will need to look at when you are ready to buy your next new or used car, the amount you’ll have to finance and the interest amount payable.
