Car refinancing: What is it and how does it work?

Refinancing your car involves taking out a new finance agreement to pay off your existing loan and keep your current car.  You might want to do this if you think a new deal could save you money or if your needs have changed.

Or, if you’re coming to the end of a PCP agreement and would like to keep your car, refinancing could turn the final balloon payment into more affordable monthly payments.

Why do people usually want to refinance their vehicles? 

  • To keep their current car
  • To finance a balloon payment on a Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) deal
  • To lower their monthly payments (if eligible)
  • To see if they could secure a better deal

If your credit score has improved or you didn’t shop around for your original deal, you may be eligible for a more competitive option. However, refinancing might not be the right choice for everyone and switching to lower payments might not be good value in the long term.

You should always take note of the total amount payable on the loan, and bear in mind that spreading your outstanding loan over a longer term can reduce the monthly payment but may increase the total amount of interest payable.

We look to find the best rate from our panel of lenders and will offer you the best deal that you're eligible for. We will be paid a commission for providing our services and this commission may be a fixed amount or a percentage of the amount borrowed. The interest rate you pay is directly linked to the amount you are borrowing and your individual credit status.
