Hi there

Has anyone got any experience on dealing with evans halshaw and car finance?

I've got pretty poor credit however i'm able to find a guarantor. Evans halshaw said this wouldnt be necessary. So i went for the limited edition corsa they had on offer.

I've now stuck waiting for the finance to come back. They stated i could pick the car up thursday but without the finance i can't LOL

Any ideas/experience from anyone how long finance took with them?

Please don't comment on how bad my choice of choosing evans halshaw was. I needed the no deposit offer that no one else was offering.

    You do know that with those Limited Edition Corsas', they aren't limited edition at all.

    You will be paying a fortune

    Needing to buy a car on finance that has no deposit requirements really sounds like you can't afford this car!. If you have no money whatsoever saved up then how do you think you will be able to afford a car on finance with a high interest rate?.
    I really think you should be evaluating your decision before you proceed.

    Plus a friend of mine has a "limited edition corsa" and it is the most basic car you can get and the only extras are alloy wheels!.

    Except i can afford it , Its just currently my car has completely died on me. I'm able to afford the monthly payments, but not the huge deposit elsewhere.

    The limited edition was the cheapest option at the time of buying it, It worked out cheaper than the other new cars they had with a years insurance.

    I was just asking for experience from people whos used them in the past :)

    Thanks for helping i guess? :T

    I can happily break down my finances for you to see that i can afford it. It was the free insurance and no deposit that kinda sold the car to me

    No problem.

    Just thought you sounded rather doubtful. You don't need to convince me of anything.
