Car Buying and Car Loan Tips

  • When buying a car, remember to anticipate all your costs - fuel, warrant of fitness, registration, maintenance and repairs
  • You can always arrange your car loan in advance - this way, you can shop with confidence knowing how much you can spend and save time and hassle when closing the deal.
  • Ask the owner to see the current registration of the car to ensure the ownership and registration is paid up to date
  • Consider an extended warranty on your car - if you plan to keep it a while, it could be worth getting a little extra on your car loan for an extended warranty (also known as a service contract) in case any unexpected repairs crop up
