PCP finance

Lower monthly payments and the freedom to upgrade, hand the car back, or buy it at the end.

4.8/5·Trustpilot·FCA regulated

Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) keeps monthly payments lower by deferring a large chunk of the car's value to the end — known as the optional final payment or balloon payment. At the end of the term you choose what to do: pay the balloon to keep the car, hand it back, or part-exchange for something new. It's the flexible favourite for drivers who like to change cars regularly.

Best for

  • Drivers who like to change cars every few years
  • People who want lower monthly payments
  • Anyone unsure if they want to keep the car
  • Buyers who value flexibility at the end of the term

Pros

  • Lower monthly payments than HP
  • Flexibility to upgrade, return or buy
  • Drive newer cars more often
  • Guaranteed future value protects you

Things to consider

  • Mileage limits apply (extra charges if exceeded)
  • You don't own the car unless you pay the balloon
  • Condition charges may apply if returned damaged
