What is a PCP finance agreement

Understanding a Personal Contract Plan

A PCP is a flexible method of financing a vehicle over a fixed term.

You decide the amount you put down as a deposit, the length of your agreement and your annual mileage.

The agreement defers your decision of whether you purchase, hand back or part exchange your vehicle until the end of your agreement.

How PCP finance works

Find out if a PCP is the best finance option for you

You decide the amount you put down as a deposit and the length of your agreement. Giving you the reassurance of knowing exactly what you will need to pay to own the vehicle outright in the future (this is known as the Optional Purchase Payment/Balloon Payment).

The Optional Purchase Payment helps you guard against the risk of unplanned depreciation and enables you to benefit from lower monthly payments as you are only financing a proportion of the vehicle's value.

Once these have been agreed you pay the monthly payments until the end of the contract.

You're then given the option of buying the vehicle, part exchanging it or buying it outright.

Yes, this will be arranged with our sales team at the point of purchase.

  • Agreed mileage limited are imposed at inception​
  • Excess mileage charges apply​
