2. You can drive away in a new or used vehicle every couple of year, without having to sell it on.
3. If you don’t want to buy the car at the end of the agreement, you can simply walk away.
4. When your agreement comes to an end, if the vehicle is worth more than the GFMV you can use the equity towards a deposit for a brand-new car.

Things to be aware of

1. Insuring and maintaining the vehicle is your responsibility.
2. All finance must be settled before you can sell the car.
3. You must make all of the repayments before you can officially own the vehicle.

The rates for Hire Purchase are generally very competitive. In order to get the lowest interest rates, you will need a good credit rating.
