What is PCH Lease?
PCH stands for the personal contract hire, PCH is leasing a vehicle that allows you to drive a new vehicle every few years with low monthly payments and not having to worry about the vehicle’s resale value.
“You will not have an option to purchase the car at the end of your agreement.”
Basically, a PCH lease allows you to finance a new car without having to buy it outright, the same as a long-term rental. You pay an initial payment that is normally three months upfront then followed by monthly payments until the lease agreement ends, then you return the vehicle back to the leasing company.
Advantages of PCH lease
  • You don’t have to worry about losing money on the vehicles value.
  • When the lease agreement ends, hand back the vehicle.
  • It’s a very cost-effective way to keep you in a brand-new car.
  • Short-term agreement makes it easy to swap into a new car.
  • No need for big deposit.
  • There’s no MOT for vehicle less than 3 years.
  • Flexible contract lengths.
  • You’ll have fixed monthly repayments.
  • Monthly payments tend to be lower than financing.
  • There’s no balloon payment at the end of the lease.
  • No large fees at the end of an agreement.
Disadvantages of PCH lease
  • Excess mileage fees can be expensive if you go far beyond your agreed limit.
  • High costs are involved for terminating a lease agreement early.
  • You will be charged for any damage to the vehicle that’s not classed as fair wear and tear.
  • Ending a PCH lease early will incur extra charges.
  • You don’t have the option to own the car.
  • Leasing agreements tend to have strict mileage limits with further costs for going over those.
  • You’ll need to pay to give the car back before the end of your contract.
If you wish to end the PCH lease agreement term early on a “early termination”, you will have to pay a minimum of 50% of the remaining rentals.
“You are tied into the contract for a fixed term just like a mobile contract.”
Although, please note with some finance companies you will have to pay all of the remaining rentals in order to early terminate the vehicle. As finance companies have different forms of contract you do need to check the contract with the credit broker, in order to get the correct calculation.

Leasing and buying a vehicle are two very different approaches in getting yourself behind your desired vehicle.

With PCH Leasing, you pay a small deposit at the beginning then pay a monthly rental fee for an agreed amount of time that is normally between 3 and 5 years but can vary.

At the need of the contract, you hand the vehicle back and you don’t have the option to buy.

“Short-term agreement makes it easy to swap into a new car that you wouldn’t normally be able to afford.”

With buying a vehicle, you take ownership or have the option to do so if you have a PCP finance deal.

Options available when buying a vehicle are:

  • Personal Contract Purchase.
  • Hire Purchase.
  • Bank Loan.
  • Cash.

Should you lease or purchase your next vehicle? When it comes to obtaining a new set of wheels, this is a subject you may be considering, and deciding which route is ideal for you.

According to the British Vehicle Renting and Leasing Association, more than 1.3 million vehicles are presently leased on UK roads, indicating that leasing is a popular choice for many.

Advantages of Leasing

  • Monthly payments are lower than finance packages.
  • You have short term contracts make it easier to switch into a newer vehicle more regular.
  • They are no big cost at the end of the contract.

Advantages of Buying

  • You either have the option of owning the vehicle or you’ll own it.
  • You shall have no or less mileage restrictions.
  • You have the option of returning the vehicle earlier.

Disadvantages of Leasing

  • You can’t buy the vehicle at the end of the contract.
  • You have mile limits, which can be expensive when going over the limit.
  • You have to pay additional cost if returning the vehicle back before end of the contract.

Disadvantages of Buying

  • Your monthly payments will be higher.
  • Contracts are longer, newer car less often.
  • You will have to occur the depreciation cost.
Leasing a vehicle is cheaper than buying a car but the main disadvantages is like when buying a house, you won’t be paying towards ownership and you will have to keep within strict terms, like not being able to customise to your preference, like new wheels, upgraded sound system, etc.

When buying a vehicle, you need a larger deposit and have larger monthly payments to pay, like a mortgage but you will either own the vehicle or have the option to own the vehicle at the end of the contract.

Whether you should lease or buy a car boils down to your preference. Here are some examples of each scenario:

When it’s best to lease a vehicle:
  • You prefer lower monthly payments and a newer vehicle.
  • You like a newer car more often.
  • You use the vehicle for business, taking advantages of business rates.
When it’s best of buy a vehicle:
  • You want to own the vehicle and make modifications.
  • You are happy to drive a vehicle for longer.
  • You have no mileage limit.
