How does an HP agreement work?

Hire Purchase is most comparable to a bank loan and enables you to repay the balance on a flexible term with no mileage restrictions. At the end of the agreement, you own the vehicle but may need to pay the 'option to purchase fee' depending on the manufacturer.

You may terminate an HP agreement earlier than the full term; however, you will have an amount to pay back, which is dependent on how far you are into the contract.
