Vehicle finance helps to spread the cost of a new or used car or van. Instead of paying the full amount upfront, you pay monthly.
You need to be at least 18 years old to enter into a finance agreement under UK law.
APR stands for Annual Percentage Rate. When you borrow money on an agreement regulated by the Consumer Credit Act, lenders are required by law to quote this rate, which calculates the total amount of interest that will be paid over the whole term of the loan while taking into account any additional charges that the borrower has to pay. The APR allows you to compare the cost of finance from different lenders.

Hendy Car & Van Store offers two type of finance Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) and Hire Purchase (HP).
There are four very simple stages to PCP:
You will agree an amount you need to borrow to purchase your chosen used vehicle from the Hendy Car & Van Store (less any deposit or part exchange).
We will contact the motor finance company for you which, subject to credit checks, pay for the vehicle for you.
You will make monthly payments to the motor finance company making your vehicle more affordable by putting off (or deferring) part of the cost until the end of the agreement.
At the end of the agreement, you will have three options:
Pay off the deferred amount in full and keep the car (please note, you do not own the vehicle until you make this final payment)
Hand the vehicle back to the motor finance company
Trade the vehicle in against another used vehicle at the Hendy Car & Van Store
There are four very simple stages to HP:
You will agree an amount you need to borrow to purchase your chosen used vehicle from the Hendy Car & Van Store (less any deposit or part exchange).
We will contact the motor finance company for you which, subject to credit checks, pay for the vehicle for you.
You will make fixed monthly payments to the motor finance company for the agreed term
At the end of the agreed term, the vehicle is yours.
The finance paperwork for HP will clearly state the cost of the vehicle, the deposit you have made and the amount of interest you will be paying on the amount borrowed.
Please note, the vehicle will be used as security for the loan, just as a house is for a mortgage.
