Credit When Discharged?

I was discharged in May. I really need a new car for work. Am I legally allowed to apply for credit to buy a new car now?

    Hi!

    You are allowed to apply for credit now. Whether you will actually get it is a completely different matter...

    Let us know how you go.

    Hi Julian,

    Obtaining credit is going to be difficult,however a long term lease hire agreement may not be out of the question.(sure I read recently someone got a motor this way ...although could be wrong)
    Why not get a little cash together and get down the auctions or take alook on EBAY look for spelling mistakes ie someone looking for a deisel car wont search for a diesel car & Visa Versa

    Hope this helps
