I don't mean to be rude, but I wasn't asking whether you thought I needed to 'drive my car more'. I am more than capable of knowing when I need a new car.
Thanks to everyone else for your help.
Don't pay any attention to Sabastian6, he's a well known spouter of the totally irrelevant. Personally I can't wait for Sabastian7 - the new and improved version.
If you want a loan for a new car then get a loan for a new car.
Just get the best deal you can,which to be fair to you, is all you are trying to do here, and ignore the "I got a half million miles out of my lada riva" brigade.

Hi
First try your bank. It might be worth going in branch to talk to them to see how likely it is you will be accepted for a loan and at what APR, whilst they can't give you a definitive answer then will be able to give you an idea before you actually have a credit search done.
Generally for low amounts like that the APRs won't be the best but it does sound like a loan is the best solution to fund a car in your situation.
You could also look at the best buys here http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/loans/cheap-personal-loans but remember they quote typical APRs not the APRs everyone will get.
Finally before you apply have a look round to see if you could get something suitable for less, the less you borrow the lower the interest and the quicker it is paid off.A smile enriches those who receive without making poorer those who giveor "It costs nowt to be nice"0 -
