Auto Finance Direct - Insurance for your new vehicle

Cars are very pricey and can you imagine if your car is written off or stolen and you don’t have insurance?

You would still need to pay your installments and you wouldn’t have a vehicle. That is why it is so important to ensure your vehicle.

There are many different insurance options available to cover your new car. Lifestyle Waiver repayment cover will pay back your loan on your behalf in the event of an accident if you are too ill to continue working if you are made redundant or declared bankrupt. This cover will also pay out if you become terminally ill or in the event of your death.

Online payment calculator

If you aren’t quite sure exactly how much money you have to spend and how much you can afford to pay in installments use our online payment calculator to help you figure out your finances. Your interest rate will be much lower if you put down a deposit when you buy your vehicle.

Get the best car financing deal

Car dealers want to confuse you and try to make you spend more money than you intended to so that they make more money. Very seldom does a car dealer have your best interest at heart and they will try to sell you on special deals or limited time offers on their range of car loans.

Apply for pre-approved financing

Before you set foot inside the dealership, you need to do some research so that you know what to look for and how much the car you want costs elsewhere. By knowing more about the vehicle you are after, you will be able to negotiate a more favorable interest rate and lower overall charges.

Make sure you know what you are paying for

Many dealers will try to make the deal look more attractive by promising that you will pay lower monthly or weekly payments, but these tactics hide the true cost of the loan and might come with additional added fees. Try to stay away from offers that require a balloon payment at the end of the loan and make sure that your negotiations revolve around the overall price of the car.

Affordability is very important

That shiny new sports car may look great, but can you really afford to drive it? You should find a vehicle that suits your requirements and that you will be able to afford to drive.
