Essentially hiring (you could make them an offer at the end of the term if you'd like to keep it then just finance the balance).

Yeah but its not a Vauxhall Corsa is it!!!
Takes the future depreciation out of the equation which you could say is peace of mind. You either buy it (if the value is more than their offer price) or hand the keys back (if the offer price is higher than it's true value). Provides and element of peace of mind, so you can budget easily for it, but does give you a very inflexible contract. Can work out seriously cheaper than buying yourself because of the bulk discounted prices these companies can get and share the profit with you. |

That worse out at £25000 over three years. What would a 10 plate M3 cost and then be worth in 3 years time?

you wouldn't own this though after three years so you would need to pay extra to buy it?

Now, you don't need a degree on maths to work out you'd rather lose £25k over 3 years (guaranteed) rather than £30k or even £35k (not guaranteed) if you were going to purchase a new M3 anyway. Obviously, being a finance contract, it's not that easy, the inflexibility of it all (no way out of the contract) does make you think twice, but if that's not a problem, it's a very cheap way to buy an M3.

Alternatively, just buy one second hand to minimise the loss. |

But but but when you lovingly polish and clean it you know all you're doing is looking after it for someone else...
The sums often appear to make sense but I just can't get my head around "hiring" a car. I want it to be MINE MINE MINE. ***Goes off to play with some Lego...*** |

I did look down the PCP route, it would have cost me £1200 per month on a new car. I bought mine with 4.5k on the clock and five months old, it was £8k less than a new one |

I am also not a fan of contract hire but see how it makes financial sense for some.
The examples posted above are not really accurate. This is NOT a new car and was quoted as £50000 new with no discount so now worth less. Let's say £40k. With the example above it would be worth £15k after 3 years, I suspect it would be worth more. Remember the finance company has to make money and whilst it will do so on finance charges, it will also on the car price. The money won't be in the bank as stated above as it will gradually reduce and you might be paying more. If I needed finance then I would just get the best loan deal that I could but I just save my pennies and buy something when I can afford it. |

Surely it's got to do with when you buy as well. if you got into this deal now the new 3 series would be out by the end of the deal. The new M3 wouldn't be out if it even proves possible to make such cars in 3 years time but it would still be regarded by many as being an old shape so it may have depreciated more. Not too mention how the ever increasing running cost of a car like this will effect the depreciation in 3 years time. I guess that will be the lease companies problem though.
I've concidered PCP in the past as an attractive way of owning a brand new car every X number of years. Mainly because I don't see the point in owning an ever depreciating asset outright. However, I always end up going this route as contracts just make me nervous.

Both cars owned outright and bought with that strange stuff called cash. Same with everything we "own" Did the (IMO) naive loan thing in my early years - never ever again. It's not wrong, it's just not for us.
