Choose Between Hire Purchase or Personal Contract Purchase
We offer the choice between two finance agreements: Hire Purchase (HP) and Personal Contract Purchase (PCP), both available with no deposit. The decision between these options depends on your specific circumstances. Here's a breakdown for your clarity:
Hire Purchase (HP)
24-60 month agreements is a traditional route to vehicle ownership. You make regular monthly payments on the vehicle, and own the car completely when the finance term ends.
Personal Contract Purchase (PCP)
Up to 48 months is a very flexible option. A balloon payment is deferred until the end of the finance term, making the monthly repayments lower. You have the option to purchase the vehicle or hand it back at the end of the agreement. PCP contracts are only available on cars that are younger than 5 years old and have less than 50,000 miles.
Hire Purchase (HP)
Hire Purchase is one of the most straightforward ways to finance a car. Once you’ve chosen your vehicle, the cost is spread evenly over an agreed number of months. At the start, you can choose to put down a deposit if you wish, though we also offer zero-deposit options.
Your monthly payments remain fixed for the length of your agreement, making it easy to budget. When you reach the end of the term and make your final payment, the car is legally yours. There are no balloon payments or surprises at the end — just clear, simple ownership.
Personal Contract Purchase (PCP)
Personal Contract Purchase is designed to give you more flexibility. Much like HP, the cost of the car is spread across monthly payments, but these are usually lower because a large portion of the vehicle’s value is set aside as a final optional payment, often called a “balloon.”
At the end of the agreement, you have three choices:
-
Pay the balloon payment and keep the car.
-
Hand the car back with nothing more to pay (subject to mileage and condition).
-
Part-exchange it for another vehicle, often using any equity towards your next deposit.
PCP can be especially useful if you like the idea of changing your car every few years without the commitment of full ownership from the outset.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about used car finance from North Wales Cars Ltd in Mochdre, Conwy.
What car finance options does North Wales Cars Ltd offer?
North Wales Cars Ltd offers Hire Purchase (HP) and Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) finance options for eligible used cars. The most suitable option will depend on your circumstances, budget and whether you want to own the vehicle outright at the end of the agreement.
What is Hire Purchase car finance?
Hire Purchase, or HP, spreads the cost of a vehicle across regular monthly payments over an agreed term. North Wales Cars Ltd offers HP agreements from 24 to 60 months. Once you have made the final payment, the car becomes legally yours.
What is Personal Contract Purchase car finance?
Personal Contract Purchase, or PCP, spreads the cost of a car across monthly payments while deferring part of its value to an optional final payment. North Wales Cars Ltd offers PCP agreements of up to 48 months on eligible vehicles.
What is the difference between HP and PCP car finance?
With HP, the cost is spread across fixed monthly payments and you own the car after making the final payment. PCP usually has lower monthly repayments because part of the vehicle's value is deferred to an optional final payment, giving you the choice to keep, return or part-exchange the car at the end of the agreement.
Can I get car finance with no deposit?
Yes. North Wales Cars Ltd states that both HP and PCP can be available with no-deposit options. Approval and the finance terms offered will depend on your individual circumstances, status and income.
Which used cars are eligible for PCP finance?
North Wales Cars Ltd states that PCP is only available on cars that are younger than five years old and have covered less than 50,000 miles. Other eligibility and lending criteria will also apply.
What happens at the end of a PCP agreement?
At the end of a PCP agreement, you can pay the optional final payment and keep the car, return the vehicle subject to the agreed mileage and condition requirements, or part-exchange it for another vehicle and potentially use any available equity towards your next deposit.
Is there a mileage limit with PCP car finance?
Yes. A PCP agreement includes an agreed annual mileage allowance. If you return the vehicle after exceeding that allowance, additional mileage charges may apply. Drivers covering significantly higher annual mileages may find HP worth considering instead.
Does North Wales Cars Ltd provide the finance itself?
No. North Wales Cars Ltd acts as a credit broker, not a lender. It works with a number of carefully selected credit providers and may receive a fee from the lender it introduces you to. Finance is subject to status and income, terms and conditions apply, and applicants must be aged 18 or over.
