Okay, so let's talk through who would be suited to both hire purchase and PCP.
6:57
If you plan to keep your car for an indefinite period of time and you don't want to be forced to change it at a, at a particular time in three or four years down the road, a hire purchase gives you more flexibility.
7:10
You're going to be paying more per month unless you take it over a longer term.
7:15
So roughly a, a five-year hire purchase would give you similar payments, very broadly speaking, to a three-year PCP.
7:22
So if you want to keep the car for longer and you don't want to be forced to change it, then a hire purchase works well because once you've made that last payment, you're no longer paying hundreds of pounds a month.
7:32
You can just keep driving around in that car.
7:34
So if you don't want to be forced to make a change, you want the ultimate flexibility, uh, a hire purchase is the best bet.
