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.
To find out what your monthly repayments could be:
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.

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.
Option 1
Personal Contract Purchase (PCP)
This is our predicted future value of the goods at the end of the finance agreement and only applies to Flex Car Plan (PCP). You can either pay the optional lump sum to own the car, or hand the car back – return conditions apply. To find out more, view our product comparison page.
The Total Repayment shown for Flex Car Plan (PCP) includes the optional lump sum.
Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) final payment will be the optional lump sum.
Option 2
Hire Purchase (HP)
N/A
Lending is subject to status and additional affordability checks.
Switching your existing HP or PCP agreement to Lloyds Bank could save you money. If you refinance your car to one of our plans, your monthly payments could be lower, or you could spread the cost of a lump sum payment.
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 mileage and return conditions apply.
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.
Car finance is a type of borrowing which helps you spread the cost of a new or used car, instead of paying for it in full, up front.
We will buy the car on your behalf. You will then make regular payments, including interest, over a fixed term.
On an HP plan, once you make the final repayment, including all interest, you’ll own the car.
On a PCP plan, you may have a balloon payment left after the term ends. You can choose to pay this off and keep the car, trade it in for a new car on a new plan (subject to status), or just return it. 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.
Any finance we offer you depends on various factors, such as the vehicle make, model and age, your personal circumstances and our lending policies.
