Car Finance with Bad Credit and No Guarantor
Can you apply for car finance with bad credit and no guarantor? Yes!
Although having a guarantor can sometimes help to increase your chances of approval, it’s not essential.
At We Finance Any Car, we recognise that being able to apply for car finance on your own should be an accessible option. After all, relying on someone else can be tricky – especially if they are a family member or close friend. Alternatively, you may not be able to find a suitable guarantor.
But will a bad credit score hold you back?
Not necessarily!
We work with a panel of lenders specialising in flexible car finance for bad credit applicants. They understand that your credit score may not define your entire financial situation and will consider a variety of factors.
So, guarantor or no guarantor, we can help you secure the car of your dreams today…
What you can expect:
- Bad credit specialists
- Flexible payment plans
- Soft credit search
- No guarantor needed
- Expert advice and support
No guarantor, no problem – apply for car finance now with We Finance Any Car.

Are you likely to be approved without a guarantor?
Car finance is never guaranteed and your chances of approval will depend on several factors. However, at We Finance Any Car, you’re in the best position to secure a deal.
Your financial situation is unique. This means that your eligibility for no guarantor car finance will differ from other applicants.
Here are a few things to consider:
- Do you have a reliable source of income? Lenders will need to be confident that you can meet the monthly deadlines in full and on time.
- Are you in full-time employment? Although this can help to boost your application, our panel will also consider self-employed applicants as well as offering car finance for people on benefits.
- Do you have a poor credit history? This can make things a little tricker, but it’s by no means impossible to secure car finance with bad credit. Whether you’re a young driver with no credit history or have a CCJ on your file, you can still apply.
- Can you provide proof of residence? Having a stable address will provide additional reassurance to lenders.
To give you the best chance of success, our lenders will review multiple aspects of your profile before coming to a decision.
They will also use a soft credit check to assess your affordability. This will give us a good idea of whether you’re eligible for car finance, without affecting your credit score.
Set your budget and apply with confidence
Whether you have a guarantor or not, the responsibility for making the monthly repayments falls on you. So, being able to afford car finance should be your number one concern. If you fall behind or consistently miss deadlines, it will only cause further credit issues and stress.
The solution? Get a handle on your finances.
Our easy-to-use online calculator can help you determine a manageable monthly payment plan. And to give you a better understanding of your budget, our friendly team is always available.
Is guarantor car finance a better option for you?
For some, guarantor car finance will be the right route to go down.
If you’ve been turned down elsewhere or would feel more confident having some extra support, it’s worth considering a guarantor. This is essentially someone who will step in and make the payments if you are unable to do so.
A few things to think about:
- Do you have a trustworthy and reliable person in mind?
- Are they financially able to be your guarantor?
- Do they have a stable credit history?
- Do you feel comfortable discussing your finances with this person?
- Are you fully aware of the terms and conditions involved?
Finally, have you explored all your other options? We offer a variety of car finance solutions, so you’re sure to find something that suits your situation.

Who might benefit from having a guarantor?
- Young adults or students
- Applicants who are self-employed
- First-time borrowers
- Applicants with a limited income
- Applicants who have previously defaulted on a loan
Have you heard of joint car finance?
Joint car finance is another option we offer at We Finance Any Car – aimed at couples or family members living under the same roof.
This is ideal for those who already share financial responsibilities, such as household bills. If you have a bad credit rating, using a co-signer with a stronger profile may allow you to get a better APR, meaning you could potentially save on interest.
Even better, it will likely give you access to a wider range of vehicles, including higher-end makes and models. Just make sure you’ve double-checked your budget.
