Get the vehicle you want and the finance for it on one website

At AutoTrader, they value transparency and pride themselves on giving their clients the most reputable options and all relevant information they would need before deciding to purchase a particular vehicle.

One of the ways in which they do this is through their vehicle check option which allows buyers to have a look at any car listed on their site's service history. This lets buyers know exactly what they are in for.

How to apply for vehicle finance with AutoTrader

When you select a car for purchase the dealer who is listed as the seller will usually go through the particulars with you and discuss specific terms and conditions. However, when you are considering purchasing a car and require financing it is important to note that you will need to meet specific requirements for any financing application to be considered.

Some of these requirements include:

• You need to be 18  or older.
• You need to possess creditworthiness. In order to be creditworthy, you need to have a clear credit rating. This rating will inform credit providers of whether you can be considered a reasonable risk applicant to whom they can offer a loan or not.
• You need to have disposable income. Most finance providers require that applicants who apply for any kind of financing have at least 30% of their after-tax salary available as disposable income. Should your monthly repayment work out to be more than that 30%, it is most likely that your finance application will be turned down.
• A stable and steady income. Unfortunately for those working freelance or solely off commission, you may have a much harder time securing financing for a car.
• For those who do not meet these requirements entirely, do not fear you have another option - you could get someone to co-sign the loan application or stand in as surety.

So what are you waiting for, make the move to secure your dream car today with AutoTrader, South Africa's largest automotive marketplace.
