How to use independent car finance advisers to get the most from your new car finance deal.

When thinking about car finance it is important to get to the bottom of your particular needs. If you think you may only qualify for a small car loan you could consider hire purchasing your car.
This means you will have the car for the duration of the lease, pay a rental figure on it with the option at the end of the deal to pay a lump sum to keep the car, if you don’t want the car you simply return it to the dealer.
It’s a bit like renting a place, but you have the option to buy at the end. This is a great option if you need to be seen with the right car, need to have a car for work but are not going to start making the big bucks until a few years time this option allows you to have the flashy car but not having to pay a huge loan back until you are earning more money. With car hire purchase, or lease purchase it allows all the freedom in the world.
Imagine the cars that you could have with car lease or hire purchase. You could have any number of luxury cars, from BMW’s, Mercedes Benz, Lexus and Audi to name a few. There are many companies offering this type of lease but of course of it is to you as to what car finance option you go for.
If you planning on buying a new car and do not want to go down the hire or lease purchase route you could always apply for car finance, or a car loan. With this option you will need to make a down payment, we tend to look at it as the deposit, and then you will pay monthly instalments to your loan company over a set number of years.
With this option if you do not keep up the repayments they may take the car from you. This type of finance either comes as a loan, say from your bank or building society, or from the dealer or a specialist car finance broker. 
When you are looking for car finance you should look for an independent financial adviser or IFA as they are known. As their title states they are independent of any company or product and work to get what’s best for you.
When looking for car finance and you are trying to decide on an IFA go for one who has a good reputation – often they will display testimonials on the website so try to look for one who have either saved clients money or have a good reputation.
You should also look for information about their processes. The process in which you will go through and how much money or time or effort you will need to go through before you actually get the quote. An application process should be very simple and should not require intrusive or excessive amounts of information at the initial stage just some basic information about yourself and the car you are buying or refinancing.
