Not yet ready to buy?

Use our free, no-obligation eligibility assessment to get an indication of how much you may be able to borrow based on typical criteria used by our participating lenders.

Just complete our simple car loan eligibility application form and a fully qualified car loan broker from our referral network will set out your options for achieving what you want to do. Any guidance or recommendations will be provided by the licensed broker or adviser to whom your enquiry is referred.

If you do not currently qualify automatically to borrow enough money to buy your dream car right now, your car loan broker can help you by:-

  • explaining all of the options and alternatives that may currently be available to you;
  • showing you exactly what more you need to do in order to borrow the amount you need now;
  • outlining exactly what you will need to do in order to qualify at some time in the future and;
  • maintaining contact with you to provide ongoing information and assistance as you require until you are ready to buy.

How we work for you!

We do not rely on automated software to provide "instant" car finance recommendations ... because we believe that no software can completely comprehend the specific needs of any individual in determining the most appropriate car finance products or options.

When you apply for a free assessment on this website, your enquiry details are provided to a qualified broker from our referral panel, who will then utilise the latest product analysis research and technology in order to tailor any recommendations and product comparisons to your personal circumstances. Car Loans Australia does not itself provide financial product advice or credit assistance; this is provided solely by the licensed broker or adviser to whom your enquiry is referred.

Therefore it is important, when you complete your eligibility assessment application, that you answer all questions as completely and as accurately as possible.
