Used Car Finance Options Available:
Personal Contract Purchase (PCP)
How it works:
With PCP used car finance, you can expect lower monthly payments with a larger optional final payment if you want to keep the car at the end of your agreement.
Benefits:
- Lower monthly payments than a traditional Hire Purchase option
- Flexibility at the end of the term (keep, return, or part exchange your car)
- Option to upgrade to a newer vehicle
- Deposit options available
PCP is ideal for:
Customers who like driving newer cars and want flexibility at the end of their agreement.
Hire Purchase (HP)
How it works:
With HP used car finance, you pay a deposit followed by fixed monthly payments. Once all payments are complete, you own the car outright (subject to a small administrative fee).
Benefits:
- Simple and straightforward finance solution
- Fixed monthly payments for easy budgeting
- Own the car at the end of the agreement
- No mileage restrictions
HP is ideal for:
Customers who want to own their vehicle and prefer predictable monthly costs.
Additional Benefits of Used Car Finance:
Early Settlement
Do you want to pay off your car finance early? Most of our agreements allow early settlement with potential savings on interest.
Payment Protection
Optional payment protection insurance is available to cover your payments if you can't work due to illness or unemployment.
Guaranteed Future Value
With PCP agreements, you enjoy the security of knowing your car's minimum future value is guaranteed.
