CarFinance2U’s Top 5 Tips When Applying For Car Finance and Car Loans
When applying for finance, take your time and make sure you secure the best interest rate for your situation. Here's our top 5 tips to consider when looking to buy a car on finance in New Zealand:
Know What You Can Afford
Work out your disposable income (expenses) and calculate how much you can pay weekly. Keep in mind unexpected vehicle expenses, fuel, insurance, etc. Use our car finance calculator to see your weekly repayment estimates.
Check Your Credit Report
You can get a free credit report from Centrix. If your credit report returns any unknown debts, you can settle them before applying for car finance. Your credit report doesn't need to be perfect, but having outstanding debts will mean you are considered more of a risk to the lender.
Pay Off Any Debts And Get Your Bank Account In Good Order
When you apply, you'll be required to show three months of bank statements, and lenders will want to see that you can manage your money well and afford your repayments.
Save For A Deposit
Having a deposit shows the lender you are financially responsible. Your total loan amount will be lower, so you'll be able to complete your repayments sooner.
Know Exactly What You Are Signing For Before You Accept An Offer
Read the disclosure statement thoroughly, and if anything needs to be clarified, ask the provider what it means. By law, a lender must ensure that you understand all fees clearly.

How Much Can I Borrow To Finance My New Car Loan In New Zealand?
It depends on your affordability. This factor is calculated by your income minus your expenses, which gives you the amount of disposable income available.
This amount is used to measure your repayment threshold and helps the lender determine how much risk is involved in approving a loan to you. The greater your affordability, the lower your risk and you will be more likely to secure low-interest car finance in NZ. Your affordability also determines how much money you can borrow for car finance.
If you have a bad credit history, affordability will also help determine whether you qualify for second-chance or bad-credit car finance because your current financial position is taken into account.
From hatchbacks to 4x4 finance loans, when you apply for car finance with CarFinance2U, the minimum loan amount is $5000.
What Is A No-Credit-CheckCar Loan in NZ?
No-credit-check car loans are where a lender will assess your current financial situation and affordability and assess the risk involved for them to approve a vehicle loan for you without any credit check involved.
Unfortunately, a no-credit-check car loan generally has additional restrictions to minimise the lender"s risk. These restrictions may include a larger deposit and a very high interest rate. This loan type will likely also have a larger establishment fee and high early exit fees if you wish to pay it off sooner than the agreed time frame. Even the type of vehicle you can purchase or the dealer you buy the car from can be a factor.
CarFinance2U does not recommend no-credit-check car loans because they are often unaffordable, and the terms and conditions can mean you end up in a worse financial position and pay unreasonable fees and interest rates for your vehicle.
We offer vehicle finance in NZ for all financial situations, so even with a bad credit history, you can rest easy knowing CarFinance2U has lenders available for your financial situation.
How Much Interest Will I Pay When I Finance A Car In NZ?
When you apply for car finance, your interest rate is determined by various factors, such as your income, expenses, credit history, and employment status.
We have a handy car finance calculator available to help you calculate your repayments. Try it with various scenarios and different interest rates to compare your weekly repayments.
Our calculator will give you a good idea of what you can afford and help you make an informed decision before applying.
Can I Get Car Finance With No Deposit?
It is possible to get approved for no-deposit car finance, but it will depend on your credit profile plus other factors as to whether you are approved. Remember that your total loan amount will be higher with no-deposit car loans. You may not secure the lowest car finance interest rate either because having a deposit can show the lender you can manage your finances better.
CarFinance2U will consider applications for no-deposit car finance on a case-by-case basis.
