Hi
Really good news and your experience will help many.
If you can post the cost and repayment details once you know them it will help.
I guess that it is a personal loan if there is no deposit paid ?

Hi Andy, it's a fixed sum loan agreement. All I needed upfront was a holding fee to take the car off the forecourt. Only paid £44.00 for that.
Details are as follows:-
Amount of Loan £7250, 47 monthly payments of £194.84 plus final payment of nearly £194.84 plus a completion fee of £299
Total interest over the full term is £2,401.32
Sounds a lot, but considering my previous credit history, I think it's an ok deal. I was paying £903 per month for my IVA, so £194.84 a month will be fine for a good reliable car. Hopefully money will be tranferred over tomorrow and I get to pick up the car on Sunday. It's my birthday on Tuesday, so a great birthday gift for me.... top car and well chuffed.
Would be interested in others opinions though.
