Representative Example: You could borrow £10,699 over 60 months with an initial payment of £495.89 (including £199 Admin Fee) followed by 58 monthly payments of £296.89 with a final payment of £495.89 (including optional £199 Option to Purchase Fee). Total amount repayable will be £19,012,40. 26.1% APR, annual interest rate (fixed) 13.3%.
The Admin Fee is a £199 fee that helps cover the costs of setting up your finance agreement. It covers things like preparing your agreement documents, carrying out credit and identity checks, and arranging payment to the broker. This fee is paid at the same time as your first payment, and it isn't refundable. It's separate from your deposit and from any other charges on your agreement.
The Optional Purchase Fee is a £199 fee you only pay if you decide to buy the car at the end of your finance agreement. You don't have to buy the car, that's entirely your choice. If you choose to hand the car back instead, you won't pay this fee. If you decide to keep the car, you'll need to pay the £199 Optional Purchase Fee, usually along with your final payment, to transfer legal ownership of the vehicle to you. This fee covers the cost of finalising your agreement and removing our interest in the vehicle. It's separate from your deposit and from any other charges on your agreement.

These figures are for guidance only; the actual payments and rate you're offered will depend on your individual circumstances and are not guaranteed.
