A car loan can be used to purchase any new or used motorised vehicle. We offer heaps of auto financing options without any rules against the age of the vehicle you want to buy.

This usually means you get lower interest rates, this can make our loans more appealing and affordable. Plus, having an asset as security often means you’ll have a smoother loan approval process.

An unsecured car loan doesn’t use any asset as a guarantee, which can result in higher rates. We only offer secured car loans at Handy Finance.
