Introduction
Holding an ABN (Australian Business Number) opens doors to business finance â but without formal tax returns, traditional lenders may turn you away.
Thatâs where low doc car loans come in, designed to help ABN holders access vehicle funding with simplified paperwork.

â
A deposit (typically 10â30%) to strengthen the application
What Can You Finance?

â
Mobile service vehicles (e.g., mobile workshops, coffee vans)

Specialty vehicles like refrigerated trucks or trailers
