Buying a car in Sydney
Sydney has the highest median vehicle prices in the country, and dealer finance desks in the eastern suburbs and the Hills know it. The rate you're offered at the dealership is rarely the rate you qualify for — it's the rate that pays the dealership the most. Getting your finance sorted before you walk in changes the conversation entirely: you negotiate on drive-away price, not on weekly repayments. It also matters because Sydney buyers borrow more on average than anywhere else in Australia, so a difference of a percentage point or two compounds into thousands over a five-year term.

Read moreFrequently asked questions
Can I get car finance in Sydney with bad credit?
Often, yes. Defaults, a past bankruptcy, or a thin credit file don't automatically rule you out — they change which lenders will look at you. Several lenders on our panel specialise in exactly these situations and price accordingly. The enquiry itself is a soft check, so finding out costs you nothing on your credit file.
How much can I borrow?
It depends on your income, existing commitments, and the vehicle. Most applications we see in Sydney sit between $15,000 and $60,000. The form asks for your household income and whether you own property because both materially change what's available to you.
Will this affect my credit score?
Not to enquire. We assess your situation and match you to lenders without a hard credit enquiry. A formal credit check only happens later, once you've chosen a lender and decided to proceed with a full application.
How long does it take?
The form takes about a minute. A specialist typically calls the same business day, and many Sydney customers have a decision within 24 hours. Settlement depends on the lender and how quickly you can supply documents — often within a few days.
Do I need to have chosen a car first?
No. Plenty of people get pre-approved first and then shop, which is the stronger position to be in. If you haven't picked a vehicle, choose 'I'm not sure yet' on the second question.
