How Close PCP works

Close PCP is available to new or used vehicles up to 4 years old and accessible through all our dealer partners.

Pay the deposit

A minimum deposit of 10% of the vehicle price is required and the remaining cost of the vehicle is paid over the term of the agreement.

Fixed repayments

Monthly repayments are fixed during the agreement and spread equally throughout the term, including interest. The agreement is up to four years and a month (49 months).

Guaranteed minimum future value (GMFV)

We guarantee the minimum the vehicle will be worth at the end of the agreement, based on agreed annual mileage and maintenance of the vehicle. (If a customer drives more than the agreed annual mileage or the vehicle is damaged beyond our fair wear and tear standards, they may need to pay additional charges).

Note: the GMFV is calculated based on a % of the lower valuation of the car at inception or invoiced sale price.

Choose to own, return or exchange the vehicle

At the end of the agreement, customers can pay the completion fee of €75 and the Guaranteed Minimum Future Value (GMFV) to become the legal owner of the vehicle, hand it back and walk away, or part-exchange it for a new one.

Finance is secured against the vehicle

If a customer is unable to keep up with their payments, we may repossess the vehicle.
