    Pass your test first. You don't want to be paying for the car while not permitted to drive it.

    Never take out a loan which will need more than a year to pay off for a year's insurance. Either pay your insurance monthly, or look for a 1 year loan or credit card for this portion of the expense.

    Once you have passed your test and got an insurance quote perhaps your employer would give you a wage advance? I think dealer car finance or hire purchase which is secured on the car can be easier to get than a plain unsecured loan.
    But a banker, engaged at enormous expense,
    Had the whole of their cash in his care.
