Hire Purchase (HP)
HP is a finance plan that allows you to spread the cost of the car by making monthly payments over an agreed term.
You make higher monthly payments than a Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) agreement, so that when you come to the end of the agreement you’ll own the car.
Unlike PCP, there are no limits on mileage.
HP could be right for you if you want to buy the car at the end of the agreement.
Personal Contract Purchase (PCP)
PCP is a finance plan where you make equal monthly payments over an agreed term, with a larger final repayment due at the end if you decide to keep the car.
At the end of the agreement, you have three options. You can hand the car back to the finance company (the car must be in good condition and within the agreed mileage, otherwise charges may apply), part exchange it for another car on a new agreement (subject to status), or pay the final repayment to own the car.
PCP could be right for you if you’re thinking of changing your car in the next few years, or if you’re unsure whether you want to buy the car at the end of the agreement.
Did you know?
PCP monthly payments are usually lower than HP payments. This is because a large part of the total amount payable is left to the end of the agreement. You also pay interest on the car’s value at the end of the term, which means that PCP can be more expensive overall.
