    Are you sure? that's paying back about £14k for about 50% apr?

    That would be around 80% APR.

    If it is a typo then they've also done it on their debt diary as they quote the same figure on there.

    Do you need to borrow that much?

    Don't discourage! If people didn't borrow 8k to buy a car now we cant pay £500 to buy it off them in 3 years time......
