What we finance

If it has wheels, we can probably fund it.

From a first family car to a work ute to a fresh import, we match you with lenders who fund the kind of vehicle you are actually buying.

Cars

New, used, dealer, or private sale. Hatchbacks, sedans, hybrids, and everyday runabouts.

SUVs

Family-sized, higher driving position, room for the kids, the dog, and the weekend gear.

Utes and vans

Tradies, contractors, and work vehicles. GST-registered fleets and sole-trader buys welcome.

4WDs

Off-road capable and tow-ready, built for the bach run, the boat, and the back blocks.

Imports

Japanese imports, fresh-off-the-boat buys, and the harder-to-place vehicles banks shy away from.

EVs and hybrids

Electric and plug-in hybrids, with lenders who understand the changing market and resale picture.

Why Tillen

Why finance a vehicle through us.

Walk into a dealership and the finance you are offered comes from one lender. We sit on your side of the table and compare a panel of specialist NZ lenders so you are not stuck with a single rate.

Independent, not aligned

We are not the dealer and not the bank. Our job is to find the right lender for you, not to push the one paying the biggest spiff.

One application, a full panel

You tell us once. We run your situation past our specialist lender panel in a single pass and bring back the real options.

Common questions

Vehicle finance, answered.

Will applying affect my credit score? +
No. The pre-approval form here doesn't run a hard credit check. We only do that with your written consent if you decide to proceed with a specific lender.
How fast can I get approved? +
Most pre-approvals come back within one business day. Same-day funding is possible if your paperwork is in order and the lender is moving.
Do I need a deposit? +
Not always. Some lenders offer 100% finance for the right applicant. A deposit usually gets you a better rate, but it's not required.
Can I finance a private sale, not just a dealer car? +
Yes. We arrange finance for private sales, dealer purchases, and imports. We just need the vehicle details so the lender can confirm the security.
What if I am self-employed or new to credit? +
That is a big part of what we do. Read more on the dedicated page.
