    I need a car but I don't have any savings and getting a loan is out of a question but i'm in a good paying permanent job and can afford monthly payments?

    If you can't get a loan then you won't be able to get finance. Why not just save up a bit and get a cheaper car? The neighbours won't hound you out of the estate, I promise ;)

    yes you do need a deposit.

    As above, why not take a look at cheaper models would be my advice. Have a read through the bangernomics thread!

    "Monthly payments" is a loan. If your getting it done through a garage they are just using a bank or finance company. It's the same as you going direct to the bank.

    Confusing! getting a loan is "out of the question" but you can do monthly payments? So who do you expect to pay the monthly payments to?

    If it's small money try the credit union, but you will need savings and they'll be held against the loan.
