Car Finance Calculator
On the hunt for a new car? Use our handy car finance calculator to work out how much you might pay each month on our Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) or Hire Purchase (HP) plans.
This calculator shows what your monthly repayment could be. The actual repayment could be lower or higher depending on your personal circumstances and the make, model and age of the car you would like to finance. You can get your personalised rate by logging in to Internet Banking.
How our car finance calculator works
To find out what your monthly repayments could be:
- Enter the price of the car you’d like to buy.
- Enter the amount you’ll pay as a deposit.
- How long you want to borrow for.
The calculator also shows what your Annual Percentage Rate, or ‘APR’ could be. APRs give you an idea of how much it could cost each year, in interest, including any standard fees, to borrow money. The APR is shown as a percentage.
Log on to Internet Banking to get a personalised rate.
This is the total price of the car you want to buy or the price you’ve negotiated with your dealer. If you haven’t chosen a car, enter the amount you plan to spend.
Your deposit is the amount of money you pay upfront to secure the car. Include any part exchange paid for your existing car, if you’re trading it in.
You can choose how many months (between 12 and 60) you want to repay your car finance over. The longer the term the lower the monthly repayments, but the more you will pay in interest.

Our car finance options
Personal Contract Purchase (PCP)
PCP stands for Personal Contract Purchase. With this plan, you will normally pay a deposit and then make monthly payments. These payments include interest and are for an agreed period of time. PCP offers lower monthly repayments than our Hire Purchase (HP).
At the end of the contract, you can choose to pay the final lump sum/balloon payment to keep your car, part exchange for a new agreement (subject to status) or simply return the car. If returning your car, yearly mileageIf you have exceeded the agreed mileage allowance on return of the car, you will need to pay an excess mileage charge. You can avoid this by agreeing a realistic mileage at the outset. and return conditions apply.
Hire Purchase (HP)
In a Hire Purchase (HP) agreement, you’ll usually pay a deposit up front. The remaining cost of the car, including interest, is split into monthly repayments over an agreed amount of time.
Once the term is up, you own the vehicle, with no lump sum to pay or mileage limits. What you do next is up to you. You might keep the car or sell it to upgrade for a newer model.

If you’re on a PCP plan, you may have a limit on how many miles you can drive per year. If you go over that limit, you could pay a fee at the end of your agreement.
