Hire Purchase (HP) Car Finance

---

 Hire Purchase (HP) car finance can be a great way to spread the cost of a car across monthly payments after paying an initial deposit. 

Hire Purchase (HP) is a type of car finance that allows you to spread the cost of purchasing a vehicle across a contracted period.

You’ll pay a deposit, and then cover the remaining cost of the car with your fixed monthly repayments until your car finance contract comes to an end.

There is a small ‘option to purchase’ fee that’s included in your final payment, which you’ll be made aware of when you sign your HP car finance agreement.

You might choose a finance car if you don’t want to pay the upfront cash price and spreading the cost seems a better alternative.

HP car finance gives you the ability to make monthly payments towards the cost of your car. This can be more manageable than buying a car outright, and you can tailor your HP finance agreement to suit your needs by adjusting your deposit or the length of your contract.

2. Pay a deposit – you’ll need to pay an initial deposit before beginning your monthly repayments, with a higher deposit meaning these monthly payments will be lower.
3. Apply for HP car finance – once you’ve put down a deposit, you’ll need to apply for HP finance by providing some personal details to see if you’re a good fit.
4. Start your repayments – if you get accepted for an HP finance agreement, you’ll begin making your fixed monthly repayments until the end of your contract.
