Hire Purchase is a popular car finance lending option that allows you to spread the cost of a vehicle over an agreed term by paying fixed monthly instalments.
Under a HP agreement you are effectively hiring the car until you have paid the loan amount in full, at which point you become the new owner of the car.
You choose how much you want to borrow over an agreed term and your monthly repayments (with interest) will be divided equally.
An initial deposit is usually required to get started, with the remaining balance paid off via monthly repayments.
You will also have the option to pay off the balance early, or terminate the agreement early if your circumstances change.

HP is a type of conditional sale agreement, whereby the entire cost of the vehicle is divided into equal monthly repayments over the length of your contract. At the end of the agreement, you own the vehicle. With Car Leasing, you’re essentially renting a vehicle over an agreed period, based on an agreed mileage, meaning your monthly instalments are normally lower in comparison. At the end of a leasing agreement you return the car to the lender.
Monthly payments are typically higher with a HP agreement, simply because you’re making repayments to own the vehicle at the end of the contract. And unlike a lease agreement, you don’t have the option of returning the car to the lender at the end of your contract. This may be a disadvantage if you’re the type of person who likes to regularly upgrade your car – and you don’t want to face the hassle of selling the car yourself.
