Credit Union Named Most Popular Choice for Irish Car Loans, for the Second Time

The credit union has been named as the most popular choice for Irish car loans in a survey completed by car trading website Carzone.ie. Eight months ago a survey by Done Deal had similar findings.

The Carzone survey found that;

  • 61% of car buyers in Ireland would choose the credit union car loan
  • 33% would choose a personal bank loan
  • 27% would choose a dealership PCP
  • 24% would choose a PCP

The Carzone report also revealed that 30% of respondents were confused about the lump sum required at the end of a PCP agreement – a sign of the growing caution with Irish car buyers around this type of finance. You can read the difference between a PCP contract and a credit union car loan here.
