Luckily, you can get a personal loan for a used car from a private seller! Here’s what you’ll need to do:
That said, personal loans require a very good credit score and often carry an even higher interest rate than car loans do. Over time, you’ll likely pay a lot more for your car with a personal loan than with a car loan.
