So I’ll be looking at a new car in the next few months (single M with parents earning 32kpa gross, 5k loan getting paid off so there will be space for it). The advice I’ve got is to tell lenders “it’s NOT a motor loan.”, basically taking a “personal loan” instead because of supposed lower rates. I’m not comfortable with that advice but they assure me “everyone does it”. I’m not going to do it, but are they right? Is it as rife as TV licence “forgetting” & dodgy boxes or would I be seriously on the hook if I did this?
