Top FAQs

Yes, you can! In fact, we happen to specialise in lending to clients with bad credit. This means we don't look at your credit score number as the be-all, end-all. Instead, we prefer to get a better picture of your finances by looking at other factors. As long as you have no finance defaults in the last 6 months or are currently bankrupt, we'll give you a fair go and take a look at your application.

Yes, but we will usually check with you before doing so. C1 Car Loans understands that most of its clients are trying to rebuild their credit rating and this is why we won't do a credit check until we are confident we can lend to you.

During the term of your loan, we will take security over your car. As soon as you have paid your loan out in full, the car is officially yours.

C1 Car Loans provides secured asset loans mostly to purchase a vehicle. However, we can look at other assets (such as motorcycles, caravans, and boats) but keep in mind that these must have another asset to secure the loan against.

Absolutely. We only charge an early termination fee if you pay out your loan within six months of accepting your contract. After six months, there are no penalties for paying out your loan early.
