With you approval in place you can go out and shop for the right car with confidence. Once you found the car, negotiated a price, and signed the contract of sale, the next step in the finance process will be to settle the finance. This process refers to inputting the final few pieces of information needed by the car finance company, signing your new finance documents, the dealer or seller being paid, and you finally driving away in your new car. If you are purchasing from a dealership, normally all that is required is a copy of the tax invoice for the vehicle. Then they will prepare your finance documents. These documents will contain details about the vehicle, the terms of the loan and the payments. From there, the final thing that you need to do is provide an Insurance Certificate of Currency which says that the car is currently insured. Once your insurance and loan documents are received by the finance company, your work is all done. The financier creates the loan and pays the dealer or the seller. After they have received the funds, everything is complete and you can go and pickup your new car!
