Make your dream of owning a car, a reality. Most of us don’t have enough money to meet the expense of purchasing a car, but we can afford to make the monthly payments related to car finance. Financing your car gives you the opportunity of buying a car and paying for it gradually over a period of time. Car finance offers you the opportunity to buy a car of your liking without using up your savings.

Following are some ways of financing a car.

1. Personal

Personal loans allow individuals to access finance to purchase both new and used vehicles, and can postpone payment of the whole amount to the future. Tax benefits and cash management are reasons why many individuals who have adequate additional cash to fund a purchase still opt for a personal car loan.

2. Business Car Finance

*Commercial hire purchase

Hire Purchase is a rental agreement, in which the goods automatically become yours once all terms of the agreement have been fulfilled. You also have the alternative of including an upfront deposit or exchange to lessen your rental obligation, while a balloon payment may also be set at the conclusion of the term to acknowledge the equipment's end value. Alternatively, you may choose to structure your rentals to clear the debt in full over the period of your agreement.

 *

Chattel Mortgage Finance is a car loan that allows a business using the "cash" method of accounting for the Goods & Services Tax to claim back the GST on the vehicle purchase price in their next Business Activity report. When your contract period ends and you’ve paid the complete loan, the mortgage title is yours.

 *Maintained operating lease

A Maintained Operating Lease assimilate all service, maintenance, tyres, registration and fuel management costs and allows the company to hand the car back to the financier at lease end without the liability for the residual value. In this you just have to choose the vehicle and nominate the lease term and the maximum number of kilometers that you will travel.

All the maintenance costs are included into the one simple monthly settlement, and at the closure of the lease you simply hand back the car and if necessary change with a modernized vehicle under another Maintained Operating Lease. The residual value stays the responsibility of the finance provider, not you. If necessary, comprehensive insurance can also be arranged.
