    Is there any reason you chose that site rather than a bank or the dealers finance company?

    Rates from 6.4% APR to 70.0% APR for smaller loans.

    I'm betting if you apply you'll end up nowhere near 6.4%

    £30,000 for a new car?

    You are brave, it will lose most of that as soon as you drive it off the forecourt.

    If you are even considering unheard of loan brokers to borrow money from, it would appear you are living the dream (and in one).

    Seriously, have you thought this through at all??

    If you need to borrow for a 30 grand car, then you can't really afford it.
    I used to think that good grammar is important, but now I know that good wine is importanter.

    A SECURED loan to buy a car?

    You'd put your home at risk for that?

    Please pop back with the inevitable Flat Rate against APR question once you get the documents through.

    Good luck :)
