Can I get pre-approval before purchasing?
No, unfortunately we cannot offer pre-approval car loans. When applying for our car loans you need to let us know what car youâre purchasing and how much can you put towards it.

Is it possible to refinance my car loan?
Yes, Jacaranda can offer car loan refinancing. When you refinance your car loan, you borrow money from a new lender with better terms to pay off your current car loan.
