you need to borrow about 15k to get the 'so-called' good interest rate!

Don't get loans to modify cars, you will regret it.
Listen to people that have learned the hard way.
I worked hard and had no life for a couple of years to clear mine after selling the SXi
Best thing I ever done.
Now with the Nova I only buy and do what I can afford each month, at the end of it I shall be very proud to have built this car without the use of a loan.

Also there 9month 0% car will be between 9.9%/18.9% after those 9 months, so your fucked if you aint payed it off and they sting you with a high apr!!

I work for HSBC , yeah our rates suck, but if you get in to trouble you get good support. Look out for hidden things as well as its a killer. But tbh just dont bother, i see 100's of people come in each week who are up to their eyeballs in debt, pretty sorry state this country's in atm... Seriously save for it its a much better feeling, stick your dosh in a Cash ISA and watch it grow, then spend it, much better feeling, you can just stick some in each month. If you have to get a loan dont get it on a Credit card...
