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.
