Thinking about financing for cars in Australia? A secured car loan is the vanilla choice: fixed or variable rate, set term, and a comparison rate that tells the real story after fees.
If you’re a PAYG worker, a novated lease can salary-package repayments (great for convenience, less great if you change jobs mid-lease). ABN holders often look at a chattel mortgage, with potential GST and depreciation benefits—talk to an accountant before you get too excited.
Consider a balloon/residual only if you can comfortably clear it at the end; it lowers repayments now but bumps total interest. Get pre-approval before you go clicking “Contact seller” on Tradingpost, and compare fees, early-payout costs, and insurance add-ons like a hawk.
