What is Personal Contract Purchase (PCP)?
PCP
Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) is a finance product similar to Hire Purchase (HP) that allows you to finance your new or used car but with PCP you have options. Instead of paying off the entire value of the vehicle you first agree a term, normally between 18 to 48 months, and an anticipated annual mileage, the finance company will then calculate what the expected value of the vehicle will be at the end of that term, this is known as the Minimum Guaranteed Future Value (GMFV) or Option Final Payment (OFP).

This means you are only paying the expected depreciation of the vehicle making your monthly instalments smaller. At the end of the agreed term you have 3 choices, you can;

1. Pay off the known GMFV/OFP and keep the vehicle.
2. Hand the car back to the finance company, subject to fair wear and tear and mileage.
3. Part exchange your car and use any equity remaining as a deposit on your new car.

Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) is one of the most popular method of financing a vehicle.
