Secured fixed interest rate Car Loan

Buying a car is an exciting step, and finding the right loan can make all the difference. Whether you’re after a lower rate with a car loan or the flexibility of a personal loan, it’s all about choosing what works best for you. We’re here to walk you through both options, so you can make a confident decision that suits your budget and lifestyle. Let’s explore the benefits of each and help you get on the road with the right finance solution.

A secured fixed interest rate car loan is a type of car financing where the loan is “secured” by collateral. In most cases, this is the car being purchased with the loan. This means that if you default on the loan, the lender has the right to repossess the car. The upside is that with a car backing the loan, you’ll usually pay a lower interest rate when compared to an unsecured loan.

The interest rate for this loan is fixed, so you’ll have the same minimum monthly repayment for your loan term.

At Coastline Bank, you can choose a loan term between 1 and 7 years. This allows you to choose a term that best fits your budget.

A short term of 1-3 years may be an option if you don’t mind higher monthly payments but lower overall interest costs. On the other hand, longer terms of 4 to 7 years offer more manageable monthly payments, although you may pay more in interest over time. Our personal loan calculators can help you find a loan term that fits your finances. Alternatively, contact us, we’re happy to help.
