Car buyers on the increase says Sainsbury's Bank

There is a continued rise in the amount of people wishing to purchase a car, research undertaken by Sainsbury's Bank shows.

A cumulative total of £69.4 billion is expected to be spent on buying a new car within the next six months and 29 per cent of these car buyers will use a loan to finance the purchase.

The Sainsbury's Bank findings show that between September 2006 and February 2007, an extra 230,000 people intend to buy a car than in the previous six months.

Steven Baillie, loans manager at Sainsbury's Bank, remarked: "Given this growing trend for car purchases to be funded by loans, motorists must make sure that they shop around for a competitive rate as they could save hundreds or even thousands of pounds in repayments."

Mr Baillie then urged motorists not to rush into getting a loan and instead attempt to seek a "competitive rate" in order to save money in repayments.

A total of over 2.5 million people are willing to spend more than £10,000 on a car and 799,000 plan on splurging more than £21,000.

Sainsbury's Bank loans offer the customer 6.1 per cent typical APR and range from between £1,000 and £25,000.
