Only one who can tell you that is AIB to be honest...

But it will depend on:

- Your monthly income
- Your outgoings
- Any existing debts (credit cards, loans etc)
- Your history

It's all managed centrally now too so while you can go in and chat with a staff member, they'll really just be taking the application and sending it on.

But again, anything anyone here says is speculation.. only way you'll know is to apply

For what it's worth though I'd take a personal loan over car finance every time myself. At least if the worst happens (unemployment, loss of income etc), you can always resell the car rather than being stuck paying for it regardless.

You can always sell the car regardless of what loan you have! You're better off organising it through a dealership as the interest rates are half the amount of personal loans from your own bank therefore half the cost.

The issue will be your credit rating. The dealer would love to sell you the car but if they can't get you finance then nothing they can do. All banks these days will look at the ICB to check your credit rating, if it's bad then no loan.

You can go onto www.icb.ie fill out your details, pay €6 and they will send your credit rating to you so you know where you stand
