How to use our car and van finance calculator.

How do I use the vehicle finance calculator?

Our vehicle finance calculator will help to give you an idea of what your monthly payments might look like for the price of vehicle you're looking to buy.

Step 1 - All you need to do is enter the price of the vehicle (inc VAT for vans) at the top.
Step 2 - Choose how long you’d like to pay the loan back over.
Step 3 - Adjust your total deposit amount (this can be made up of either a cash deposit, a part exchange value or a combination of both).
Step 4 - Then select your anticipated credit score.

The finance calculator will then provide an estimate of your repayments.

How do I use the finance calculator if I have a payment in mind?

If you already have a budget in mind just enter your anticipated credit score first, then simply adjust the price of the vehicle, deposit and repayment period until you hit your payment. This will provide an indication for the price of vehicle you may need to look for.

Please note: The vehicle finance calculator is designed to give you an estimate of how much you could expect to pay each month based on the terms you select. The rates and payments quoted can change based on your individual circumstances, the lender from our panel that approves you, and the type, age or mileage of vehicle you choose.

I've worked out my payments, how do I check if I'm eligible for the quote?

While the finance calculator can give you a good indication of what your monthly repayments might look like, everyone’s credit circumstances are different and finance is subject to status.
