Your best bet is going to be one of two options: 1. Save up a sizable downpayment for a used car from a reputable dealer, get financing there at a slightly higher interest rate, restore your credit by making ontime payments. OR. 2. Go to a buy here pay here lot, make a small downpayment on a sky-high interest rate loan, restore your credit by making on-time payments and expect to have some repair bills as the cars on those lots are sub- par. I suggest the first as with enough of a downpayment, banks will still finance you on a good used car. Banks do not care what company you work for. They only care what your income is, your credit score, and your time on the job.
