PCP vs HP vs Leasing: Which Really Saves You Money in 2025?

Choosing between PCP, HP, and leasing? Each has unique pros and cons.
Hire Purchase (HP)
- Higher monthly payments.
- You own the car at the end.
- No mileage limits.
Personal Contract Purchase (PCP)
- Lower monthly cost.
- Balloon payment if you keep the car.
- Flexible: return, upgrade, or keep.
Leasing (PCH)
- Lowest monthly payments.
- You never own the car.
- Return-only, mileage/condition charges apply.
FCA rules require lenders to display representative APR and total amount payable so you can compare fairly.
