Can I get car finance without a job?

I am wondering if it's possible to get a car financed without having work sorted first. I am moving back to Ireland to the west and need a car to have a chance of getting work. I am wondering if finance is like a loan where you need a job first to get it or does it work differently than that?

Hi Joe,

Generally speaking, most finance providers will ask for some sort of proof of employment (or at least imminent employment) and without that you might struggle. You’d probably be better off talking to your bank manager or your credit union rather than trying to get anything out of a finance provider.
