Loan Against a BMW 3 Series
Pawn My Car offers competitive loans against fully owned BMW 3 Series and other BMW vehicles.
About the BMW 3 series and its popularity in South Africa
From the second generation “gusheshes” and trademark triple-threes, to the iconic Mzansi Edition, the BMW 3 Series has a special place in South Africa’s heart.
Over four decades, more than a million units have rolled off the production lines at BMW’s Rosslyn factory.
In recent years, the BMW 3 Series has remained as popular as ever. In the first half of 2021, local sales of the 3 Series shot up by 49.1 percent, year-on-year. Currently, the 3 Series is BMW’s second biggest seller, after the BMW X3.
What’s involved in pawning a BMW 3 series
Pawning a BMW 3 Series involves offering the vehicle as collateral for a short-term loan.
This makes it possible to unlock the value of the vehicle, without having to sell it.
In this type of transaction, a finance company uses a percentage of the Bimmer’s appraised resale value as a benchmark, to determine the loan amount to offer.
A short-term loan agreement is drawn up and signed. The BMW is held by the financier in a secure lock-up facility.
Once the capital and agreed interest is paid back, the vehicle is returned to the owner.
When getting a loan against a vehicle does (and doesn’t) make sense
As for almost any type of loan, a loan against a BMW makes sense if:
- you know you’ll be able to repay the loan
- the vehicle is fully paid up and in your name
- you need fast, confidential access to funding.
A vehicle-backed loan is a quick, discrete and low-risk financing option.
Because the loan is secured by the vehicle, the approval process is fast, simple and unimpaired by red tape.
There’s no need for credit scores, proof of employment or detailed financial enquiries. And funds can be paid within as little as 24 hours.
Confidentiality is a key element in the popularity of asset-based loans. No records are shared with credit bureaus or any other third party. Accordingly, this type of loan has no impact on your credit rating.
Typically, the only asset at risk in the event of a loan default is the vehicle itself.
