How to apply for a loan against a vehicle

At Lamna, we make it easy for you. Call us directly or contact us online and we’ll provide an initial estimate of how much we can lend you.

We base that figure on the information you provide us about the vehicle you’re using to secure the loan. You tell us the make, model, age, mileage and condition.

You then bring the vehicle to the Cape Town branch where it’s independently appraised to ensure our initial estimate reflects a fair market price.

We then make a formal offer of a loan. The amount will be a percentage of the trade market valuation.

A loan agreement is drawn up and signed by both parties. Your car is handed over as security for the loan. The funds are then deposited immediately into your bank account.

Contact points for our Cape Town branch include our centralised call centre, the Lamna office in Strand Street or our online application form.

What documents do you need to borrow money against your car?

All that’s required in terms of supporting documents is:

• a copy of your ID
• proof of residence
• the car’s original registration papers.

The car must be paid up in full and registered in your name.

Why loans against cars in Cape Town are quick, easy and low risk

At Lamna, we process loan applications within 24 hours. We don’t carry out credit checks or share information with credit agencies.

We rely on you to pay the loan back in full according to the terms of the agreement. However, if you default, the ownership of the car is transferred and the vehicle is sold to cover our losses.

There are no legal ramifications. Your home and personal assets are protected. There’s no record on your credit report of the transaction – or the default – having taken place.

When is the car returned?

For the duration of the repayment period, your car is insured and safely stored in a lock-up facility. It is returned to you once you’ve settled the debt, as per the loan agreement.

As the vehicle-backed loan specialists in Cape Town, we accept all types of motorised vehicles as collateral. This includes trucks, bakkies and utility vans, motor bikes, speed boats and yachts.
