Hi there was wondering if anyone has experienced this or can help. Iam have 5 months left on my TD and currently have car with still 2 years finiance left to pay (which is not included in my TD) which has now come to the end of its life. Need to get a new car, ideally with the same finiance compnay, has anyone else managed to continue the outstanding 2 years finiance against a new vehicle and set up a new agreement with the existing fininance company.

cheers

Welcome to the forum crdrysdale1.

Will it be affordable for you to pay the existing finance agreement as well as a new one as well?

Lenders are meant to check affordability, and of course you'll want to protect yourself in this respect as well.

Thanks tda

When my trust was set up I was advised my car would not be included as I needed a car to get to work to pay my trust etc etc

My thinking is if I have 3k still to pay (152 per month) see a newish car for 7k my existing finance company has offered me a new loan of 6% which over 4 years for 10k would work out at 200 ish. Obviously would pass this by my trustee before entering into agreement as only have 6 months left of my trust deed , what do you think??

If they'll give you the loan and it's affordable for you to make the payments I cannot really see any problem crdrysdale1.

What will happen with the old vehicle?

Sorry another question my finance company offered my a new agreement as my car was not parts of my trust would they be aware of my trust which could obviously hamper a new settlement???

I understand my trustee could fight my corner to help come to a new settlement is that true??

Sorry crdrysdale1, I'm not sure how we missed responding to you earlier.

If the lender is increasing the amount of finance I think they'll probably do a credit check which will reveal your protected trust deed.

I'd previously got the impression this had already been done from an earlier post you added here.

I don't know what they'll decide, but there's obviously potential for them to be concerned.

I'm not sure that your trustee would have any influence if your application fell outside of the providers acceptance criteria.

Hi guys

Thats the car knackered, infectors need replaced, rail replaced and sensors changed.

Spoke with my trustee today, advised I could include 2 years finiance left on car into tge trust and the finiance company would chase trustee, is that true?

If you cease making payments and hand the car back that should be true crdrysdale1.

What will be the plan to maintain access to a car?

God knows

Need to scrap money to get a cheap runabout

Does my chances of gaining credit greatly improve in 4 months once my trust is finished or much the same

Would it hurt to try for credit on a newish car or best wait for the 4 months

Credit will be hard to get for 6 years from when the trust deed started.
