How much your £25,000 loan will cost will depend on a number of different factors including:
The loan term: The ‘term’ or length you choose for your loan
The interest you’ll pay: This will be decided by your lender, based on your financial situation and credit rating
Usually, the longer your loan term, the lower your monthly repayments will be – but you’re likely to pay more interest overall, so it can end up being more expensive.
Want a better idea of how much your loan will cost you? Our loan calculator can help you work out the total cost of your loan by factoring in the interest rate or APR, the loan term and how much you’re looking to borrow.

APR, or your Annual Percentage Rate, is the interest rate at which you pay back money you’ve borrowed. It takes into account the actual interest rate you pay, plus any other fees or charges involved in the deal, to give you a more complete picture of what you loan will cost.
When you see a rate advertised as the representative APR, this means the lender is required to offer this rate to at least 51% of applicants – however it doesn’t mean you’re guaranteed to receive this interest rate yourself.
A soft-search or soft-application is a way of finding out where you stand in terms of getting a loan without leaving a mark on your credit report. It’s a useful way of finding a loan you’ll be eligible for without harming your chances of being accepted.
Once you’ve been approved for a loan, depending on your lender, you could receive the funds into your bank account very quickly – this could be the next day, for example, or within the next week or two. If you’ve applied by phone or post it may take slightly longer. Things can also take a bit longer if your application or your financial circumstances are more complicated and require more checks.
Usually you’ll be able to pay off all or part of your loan early, though some lenders may have an early repayment charge.
Missing repayments can lead to penalty charges and extra interest, and it could also have a negative impact on your credit file and rating. If you have concerns about your loan and meeting your repayments speak to your lender as early as possible to see if you can work out a joint solution, such as a repayment holiday or restructure of the loan.
It is possible to get a loan for £25,000 without a guarantor but how much you can borrow and on what terms will depend on your own financial and personal circumstances. One of the most important factors will be your credit history and score. The better your credit score and financial position the more likely you’ll be able to borrow a larger loan and at lower interest rates.
It is not possible to get a loan without a full credit check. All regulated lenders in the UK will conduct a full credit check on your before giving you a loan. This is to ensure the loan is affordable for you and that the lending is responsible.
You can use your £25,000 loan to buy a car. Sometimes, when you apply for a loan, lenders will ask what you want the money for, and some have specific criteria of what is and isn’t permitted. But typically, a car purchase will be acceptable. The main considerations will usually be that you can meet the affordability and credit score requirements of the loan.
