This one's pretty cheap, not the 'M' but I'm sure you could find one :

Originally posted by dotnetterI've looked quite heavily into contract hire actually, it seems to make sense even though my account says it's better to be through a personal loan than company contract hire.

Personal loan (or) HP (or) HP + balloon payment (PCP) are a whole different ballgame.
Yes you will be credit checked for contract hire, but I think you'll find the credit scoring isn't quite as harsh as turning up at a franchised dealership and asking for finance. All depends how bad your rating is really.
Your default is on file for 6 years (that's 6 years after your last payment against it - not six years after it appeared) but some finance co's will only check the last 3 or 4 years of history,
It won't be easy to arrange, but it is possible.Comment

Her website is a mess though... tone it down a bit loveScience isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

Why not apply for a 0% credit card and see what happens? you might get one in todays climate. If so just keep shifting the debt.
I currently have 20k on 0% earning interest.

But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment

I'm looking to buy a new Z4 M Coupe, it's alot of money, I'm a contractor so obviously I can afford the monthly payments.
And just because you can afford it today, doesn't mean you can afford it tomorrow.
Interest rates rising, property market crashing, shares tumbling - you'll need all the money you can get.It's my opinion and I'm entitled to it. www.areyoupopular.mobiComment
