Hi janine, I would have thought this would be very difficult to do as even though you have completed early, your IVA will still show up on your credit file for 6 years from the date it started.

Does it HAVE to be a new one? Will your bank give you a loan? Mine will even though im just out of an IVA because i have good history with them and no debts were with them when i started my IVA.

You could try Dunctons, they are very IVA/BR friendly. The only drawback is that the APR is high.

I believe with Dunctons you also have to have a £1000 deposit. x

No matter how much I needed a car I just couldn't justify the extra amount they are charging. A friend of mine just got a BMW 1 series and will end up paying £35K back by the end of the term. No chance.

They do charge a lot, but they are taking a risk by allowing people with a less than perfect credit record to have a car on finance and there are several posters on here who have used them and been happy.
