Explore a monthly payment

Adjust the figures to see how your payment could change. The APR is an assumption, not a lender rate.

A longer term can lower monthly payments but increase the total interest you pay.

Estimated optional final payment (illustrative): 35% of the vehicle price. This assumption stays the same when you change the term; it is not a lender-guaranteed future value. A lender must confirm the final payment for your vehicle and chosen term.

Our PCP vehicle rules: 2020 onwards, no more than 100,000 miles and no recorded write-off category. A lender must confirm vehicle eligibility and the final payment.

Two routes. One informed decision.

HP or PCP?
Make it make sense.

You do not need to choose before speaking to us. Start with how long you want to keep the car and what you want to happen at the end.

HPWork towards ownership

Hire Purchase

Spread the amount you borrow across monthly repayments. The car becomes yours once all required payments and any purchase fee are paid.

Monthly payments
Repay the full amount financed plus interest.
At the end
Own the vehicle after completing the agreement.
Final payment
No large optional balloon; a purchase fee may apply.
Mileage
Usually no contractual mileage limit. Check your agreement.
Explore finance with the team
PCPKeep your end-of-term options open

Personal Contract Purchase

Defer part of the cost to an optional final payment. Monthly repayments may be lower than equivalent HP, but compare the full cost to own.

Monthly payments
Part of the balance is deferred; interest still applies.
At the end
Keep, return or discuss changing the car, subject to terms.
Final payment
Pay the optional balloon if you want to own the car.
Mileage
Agreed mileage and return condition; charges can apply.
Talk through PCP options

The lower monthly payment is not always the lower overall cost. Compare the APR, deposit, fees, total payable and any final payment in your written quotation.

Before you apply

A little preparation.
A smoother start.

Applicants must be 18 or over. Each lender sets its own criteria, and the team will explain what is needed for your application.

Know before you go

Good questions.
Straightforward answers.

Do I need a car in mind before applying?

No. You can start your application first, browse our Marketplace or ask the team to source a vehicle. Any vehicle you choose will need to meet the lender’s criteria.

Can I apply with a £0 deposit?

A zero-deposit option may be available, subject to the lender’s decision and your circumstances. A deposit reduces the amount you borrow. Compare the total cost as well as the monthly payment.

Can you help if I have had credit problems?

Tell us about your circumstances so the team can explain the available routes. HP and PCP involve lender credit and affordability checks; acceptance is never guaranteed. Our separate leasing service has different terms.

Will applying affect my credit score?

An application may involve credit searches. Ask the team which searches will be carried out and at what stage before proceeding. Using the illustration calculator on this page does not run a credit search.

What fees will I pay?

Any applicable broker or account-opening fee, deposit and lender charges will be explained in your written offer before you decide to proceed. The separate lease processing fee does not describe your finance costs. The illustrations on this page exclude fees.

What happens at the end of a PCP agreement?

You can pay the optional final payment to keep the car, return it subject to the agreement’s mileage and condition terms, or discuss changing it. Any new finance agreement requires a new lender decision. Positive equity is not guaranteed.

Can I settle my finance early?

Ask your lender for a settlement figure and check any applicable charges. The outstanding balance shown in an account may differ from the amount needed to settle the agreement.
