For an AutoMoney Trust car finance application, you may be asked to provide proof of identity such as a valid UK driving licence or passport, proof of income such as recent payslips or bank statements, proof of address dated within the last three months, and details of the vehicle if you have already chosen one. Self-employed applicants may need to provide additional documentation such as SA302 forms or business accounts. Having these documents ready before applying helps speed up the decision and reduces back-and-forth requests.
Yes, AutoMoney Trust accepts applications from customers with a lower credit score, as we look at your wider financial situation rather than relying on a single number. Affordability, income stability, current commitments, and recent credit conduct are all considered. A lower score may affect the rate you are offered or the amount you can borrow, but it does not automatically rule out approval. Applications remain subject to status and affordability checks. If you are ready to see your options, you can start an application online and receive a decision in minutes.
Yes, car finance may still be available with poor credit, although approval depends on your wider financial circumstances rather than your credit score alone. AutoMoney Trust specialises in helping customers who have been declined elsewhere, including those with CCJs, defaults, or limited credit history. We assess affordability, income stability, and current commitments alongside your credit file. Poor credit may mean a higher interest rate or a smaller borrowing amount, but it does not automatically rule you out. You can explore finance options by completing a short online application, with a soft search that won't affect your credit score.
With Hire Purchase, you pay the full vehicle value across fixed monthly payments, then own the car outright after a small Option to Purchase Fee. With PCP, monthly payments are typically lower because you only pay off part of the car's value, with a large optional balloon payment at the end if you want to keep it. PCP often has mileage limits and condition charges; HP does not. AutoMoney Trust offers Hire Purchase only, as it provides predictable costs and guaranteed ownership for customers buying used cars.
