Our Hire Purchase calculator can help you understand the amount you’d have to pay monthly, but this won't tell you how much you can afford to spend. You'll also need to think about your monthly affordability before committing to a finance agreement.
Using our ‘Affordability Calculator’ below you can find out how much car finance you can afford by following a few simple steps.
Affordability calculator
This is the amount you get paid into your account each month
Hit calculate to see your estimated monthly disposable income
Now that you know what you can afford, use our car finance calculator to see how much you can spend on your car
The use of this Affordability Calculator to determine your disposable income is not a guarantee of the availability of credit facilities from Carmoola
How much do you earn each month? Is it a regular amount? If not, try to average out the past 6 months.
How much do you spend each month? This amount should be your individual monthly spending on the following:
Now you've got your monthly income and monthly spend, you can deduct the spend
from the income to see roughly what your monthly disposable income might be. For example, if you earn £1,500 per month, and you spend £1,000 per month, your disposable income would be £500.
When calculating your disposable income, you should always allow yourself a little buffer for any unplanned events or activities to ensure that you’ll be able to afford your monthly car loan repayments.

Car finance lenders determine the APR they can offer you, based on your individual credit profile. A good APR for one person, may be a terrible APR for another! To find out what APR you would get, why not answer a few quick questions on Carmoola? We only run a soft credit search when you do this, so there's no impact on your credit score just to find out.
Yes! Here's an example to help you understand how it works. Let's say you're buying a car that costs £10,000. Some lenders such as Carmoola will be able to help you borrow the whole £10,000 if you want to. However, if you decide to add a small deposit, let's say £2,000, then you'd only need to borrow £8,000 to buy the car. Borrowing less, means your monthly payments will be less, and you'll pay less interest overall.
When you take out a Hire Purchase car finance agreement, your APR is set at the beginning and is fixed throughout the term you choose.
