How does hire purchase work?

Getting a car loan is easy - you just need to follow a few steps to get the most favourable offer possible

1

Apply for your loan

You pay an initial deposit, typically 10-20% of the car's value. This secures the hire purchase agreement.
2

Receive the money

You take ownership of the car immediately and start making monthly payments over the term of the agreement.
3

Pay it back over time

Once you've made all the payments, including any final "balloon" payment, ownership of the car is fully transferred to you.

We work with over 15 lenders offering 100+ HP and PCP deals so that you could have the best offer.
