Frequently asked car finance questions

How much can I borrow with car finance in Queensland?

Borrowers can access up to 100% of the price of their car from $5,000 up, subject to approval. That means your personal credit limit will depend on your borrower profile – which comes down to your credit history, income, spending, and other factors.

What’s the longest term I can borrow for my car loan?

Our car loans run up to seven years, but Queensland borrowers can also use a residual or balloon payment and then refinance than amount when the seven-year term ends. Extending the finance for a further two or three years will result in a total overall term of nine of ten.

Can I apply for a bad credit car loan?

You can — there are lenders who consider bad credit car loan applications. Borrowers with lower credit scores invariably pay more for car finance via a higher interest rate and fees, but there’s usually no reason why you can’t apply for car finance with a poor credit history.

How does a comparison rate work?

Comparison rates help borrowers see a “truer” cost of a loan. They incorporate things like application and monthly account fees into the interest rate to help you better understand what each loan means. When you see a comparison rate, both the annual percentage rate (APR) and the adjusted rate are clearly displayed.

Can I buy cars from private sellers with vehicle finance?

You can. Car buyers are free to buy from a dealership, an auction, and even from sites like Gumtree. You’ll need to supply details about the car to your lender because you’ll be using your vehicle as security for your loan.

Can I still get car finance if I’m self-employed?

Yes – lenders know that many Australians these days work as contractors or run a business. Documentation will differ slightly, but you can get car finance when you’re self-employed, with attractive interest rates and product features. Business customers can access low doc car finance options and get tax and GST benefits, or even consider leasing a vehicle.
