Can I get Car Finance with Bad Credit?

The dealers that we’ve mentioned above deal with every fair, bad and very bad credit car finance provider in the U.K. which means they all specialise in bad credit car finance. They are all approved by the Financial Conduct Authority and recognised as finance experts by The Finance & Leasing Association. This all means that they have the best possible chance of getting car finance approved for you anywhere in the U.K..

What does my credit score need to be to be approved by a Bad Credit Car Dealer?

A low credit score in the U.K., usually anything below 550, indicates a lower level of creditworthiness and can make it more difficult to secure loans, credit cards, and mortgages. While credit score ranges can vary slightly between credit reference agencies (CRAs), a score below 550 generally suggests a lower chance of being approved for finance.

The credit reference agencies vary in the scores they show to customers, meaning that a low score with one provider could be classed as a high score by another.

  • Experian: Very poor (0-560), Poor (561-720).
  • Equifax: Very poor (0-438), Poor (439-530).
  • TransUnion: Very poor (0-550), Needs some work (551-565).

The Bad Credit Car Finance companies we use are similar in that they will use their own variation of a credit score to make decisions. The emphasis of this is firmly on affordability and they will use these metrics to achieve a satisfactory affordability check:

  1. An actual affordability check – this is all of your income minus a “cost of living” calculation that assumes your rent, bills, general cost of living as well as any active credit, and any historic debt that you still owe.
  2. Does your credit over the past 6-12 months demonstrate a satisfactory level of affordability?
  3.  Does your credit file show that you have ever comfortably managed any of your previous credit?

So there rules will all be based around the above and we regularly see situations where all finance companies will approve a customer, situations where customers are only approved by 1 finance company as well as situations where no finance companies will approve someone.
