    Why don't you pop along and see if your bank can help as first port of call - they will be able to see how you have operated your account and will be able to assess whether you can afford the loan. This is a better option in the first instance as if your bank refuse the loan, it is going to limit your options to other avenues and relevant credit searches.

    Credit card cheque or overdraft.
    The overdraft might be a good idea.
