Finance. Cash. Both can be good options when car buying. And, of course, it can often feel tricky to know whether to buy a car on finance or with cash. However, this shouldn’t be an impossible decision. Fortunately, by taking the differences into account, you may be able to decide which of these two buying methods fits. In turn, this could help you make a more informed choice for your own purchase.

Never Buy Unknown

If you buy with a finance plan or cash, making sure your chosen car is safe’s vital. Fortunately, a vehicle check allows you to investigate the history of your chosen model very quickly. In turn, this could allow you to see if there are any red flags relating to the car; for example, has it had a lot of repairs during previous MOTs? Maybe there were a lot of advisories that might need attention now. Has the car been written off? 

Such as all important questions that allow you to decide if the vehicle is right for your needs. This can also help inform your decision on how much to pay for the car. After all, if the car is worth £10,000 in good condition.

Finance or Cash: Which is Better?

Neither option is necessarily “better,” since the optimal choice will depend on what you’re looking for. However, if your ideal car is available for a price you can afford outright, this may be worth looking into.

The Benefits of Paying Outright.

Purchasing with cash is the simpler way to buy a new or used car. Indeed, you won’t have the rigmarole of jumping through hoops to take out finance, offering benefits in its own right. Moreover, when buying outright, you won’t have to worry about ongoing costs and the like. You also own the car from day one, giving you far more control and rights over how you use it. Thus, in the long term, buying outright typically is more affordable (no interest!) and gives you greater confidence.

Why People Choose to Buy on Finance Plans.

Buying out right’s popular, but it’s certainly not the only option. Notably, buying on finance – in other words, with a loan – allows you to purchase without having to save as much. Since you won’t need to save up the entire car’s value, this is much easier to accomplish; the remaining value can be borrowed on finance. In turn, this also allows people to purchase a car they might usually be unable to afford; this could give you a more modern or more valuable car in turn.

However, before taking out any finance plan, always make sure you can comfortably afford the cost first. Indeed, the monthly expense associated with finance can be significant. If you have any concerns about affording these costs, avoiding finance, or choosing a cheaper finance deal may be better.

but needs £2,000 in repairs, you won’t want to pay anywhere near that price.
