Driving in the East Midlands

Expect a mix of urban and rural driving. Estates and hatchbacks are common, along with SUVs in the countryside. Vehicle affordability matters, so used car dealers and supermarket forecourts are popular. Maintenance and ownership costs are reasonable in this region.

Rail links to London are solid, but public transport within the region can be patchy. Roadworks on the A46 and planned rail improvements are ongoing. No Clean Air Zones are active yet, though Leicester has debated one. Commute times are moderate but increasing.

Before applying, you should always consider the most important questions around your chosen finance:

Does the Deal Fit Your Budget?

A lower monthly payment doesn’t mean the car is cheaper overall—factor in the final balloon payment if you plan to keep the vehicle.

How’s Your Mileage?

PCP agreements come with mileage limits. Going over your agreed miles may result in extra charges, so choose wisely based on your driving habits.

Want to Keep the Car?

If you decide to own the vehicle at the end of your term, be prepared for the final balloon payment. Otherwise, you can simply return it or upgrade to a new model.
