There are several important things that someone has to consider when taking a car loan.
Number 1 is your financial ability. Yes you need a car NOW but do you have the financial muscle to get one? You are in business or employment. Is your business able to raise the deposit required(mostly 20-30% of cost of car), insurance and car tracking costs too. If you are in employment, can you raise the deposit (mostly 0-20% of the car cost) plus insurance and car tracking fees?
If the above is doable, you should also be sure that you can comfortably meet your monthly repayment. Basically, you will raise the initial deposit and the other costs and be required to be paying monthly for an agreed period of time.
Number 2 do proper research of your dealership of choice. It’s true you need a car, but you need a good car at a good price. You also want good post sales services and of course nobody wants to be conned.
Check out social media pages of your preferred dealership, see their reviews across all platforms and also work with referrals. I strongly recommend buyers to purchase from used car dealerships with a physical location. Preferably a car showroom.
Number 3 get to know all costs involved. Most car loans have some hidden charges, get to know all charges from your car dealer or the bank loans office. This will help you make an informed decision. Some financial institutions have friendlier terms than others. Your car dealer will help you with this information.
Number 4 know which car you want. Before you take a car loan, research and decide on which car suits your needs and the one you like. You can start with a list and narrow down to the specific one that you will settle with.

Since you already identified a trusted dealer who will guide you to the best financier, send the documents above mentioned to the. If you wish to stick to your financier, submit the documents to them.
The documents are submitted and vetted by the financier, this can take from 24 hours to 48 hours depending with financier.
The financier commits expressly by writing that they are willing to offer the required finance to you so that you can be repaying monthly. Here, the offer letter will state all the costs involved, that is the costs to be met by the client. They will also indicate the contribution in terms of percentage and amount in shillings that they(financier) will offer.
This is a very important stage in the financing process. The client and the dealer are both happy, the bank is happy too.
At this point, I can strongly advise the client to put in some money to ensure the car that they liked is not sold to another client.
Since the bank has stated the amount to be paid to the dealer, the client will now deposit that cash to the trusted dealer. At this point the client will meet all other costs that come car financing.

After the payment of deposit and other costs by the client, the dealer will initiate a joint transfer from the dealership to the financier and client. The client and the financier are then required to accept the ownership in their respective e-citizen portals.
