She will seriously struggle to get that with no previous credit history, you may need to go as guarantor. Should have started a credit history a couple of years ago with a credit card, any card.0

Sounds like most loan companies would not loan to someone of her age. Could you not take a loan on her behalf and add it to her board money, you'd probably get a lower rate that she would too.0

Sounds highly dubious to me."An arrogant and self-righteous Guardian reading tvv@t".

she earns 10,000 a year so about 760 pm ; her only outgoing is 60 so she is left with 700 pm to do what she likes with
a decent runabout would cost 1,000 to 1,500 which she could save up for in 3 months
completely madness to burden herself at 19 with a loan for 4 years .0 -

The amount of need a car can't get credit threads astound me."An arrogant and self-righteous Guardian reading tvv@t".

Agreed,but at least they're better than "need a holiday" threads.Space available for rent0 -
If she can't afford to pay for the car, she won't be able to afford insurance.
Let's face it, nobody really needs a car. If she can't afford one, she should learn to cycle instead.0
