With PCP Finance, you can update your car more regularly

Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) gives you more flexibility. When your agreement ends, you have three options:

  • Part exchange the car, subject to settling your agreement with us. New finance agreements are subject to status
  • Pay an optional final lump sum to own your car
  • Return the car without paying the lump sum (return conditions applyreturn conditions apply)

Your monthly payments are lower

Your monthly payments will be lower on a PCP agreement than a Hire Purchase (HP) agreement or a Personal Loan, if you are borrowing the same amount, over the same term and at the same rate. This is because a significant amount that you repay is deferred into an optional final lump sum payment, helping keep earlier monthly costs low. You may end up paying more overall.

A low monthly rate

With a rate of 6.9% APR Representative when you borrow between £7,000 and £25,000, Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) makes it simple and affordable to drive the latest car.

Other terms, borrowing amounts and rates are available.
