Cars are an essential part of life - in most cities of the world, public transport will only get you so far! Unfortunately, there are many car dealers that know how desperate people can become when they don’t have a car.. If you have bad credit, and you car loan options are limited, you will often find dealers offering you bottom-of-the-barrel bad credit car loans. They are incredibly expensive, come with ‘mandatory’ extra options, and generally make you feel powerless. There are ways to get a bad credit car loans that are actually good value, though - we explore some of the tips and tricks.

1. Work out your finance before you choose a car

We know, choosing the car is the exciting part … sifting through classified ads to find a great deal on a car that’s in great shape. However, if you have bad credit, it is always advisable to work out your finance before you select your vehicle. When you have a car in mind, getting the finance becomes a race against time, and it often seems that any old loan will do. Don’t tease yourself by looking at cars before you’ve got your used car loan!It is also important to establish an approval before approaching the dealership because it provides you with a lot more buying power when negotiating prices with car dealers. By having an approval YOU MEAN BUSINESS and it's then when you can start calling the shots.

2. Use a car finance broker

There are plenty of places that offer you car loans, but the best way to get a cheap car loan (especially with bad credit) is to go to a broker. You can compare the options easily, without entering your details at multiple sites. You don’t have to suffer through the rejections that are inevitable when you try to get a bad credit car loan from a standard lender. Best of all, you can be assured that you’re getting a good deal.

3. Buy used, not new

New cars are for a very specific population segment, who has the money to afford them, but not the time to upkeep them. When you buy a new car, you are paying a premium price just for the privilege of driving a vehicle that nobody else has. This bumps the price up immensely (depreciation on new cars is often around 40% in the first year). There are thousands of great value used cars about, and with a bad credit car loan you can buy a car that is up to 10 years old.
