Morning all,

I beleive you can have a PCP car finance car back after paying half?
If that half the value of the car, or half the vavlue you agreed to pay in the term?

Info i have:

Vechile cash price £8,667
Less Advance payment (deposit) £500
Amoung of credit £8,167

Small print (total amount payable (comprising the advance payment,amount of credit, acceptence fee, interest and option to purchase is £9,882)

Monthly repayment £139
Payment term 41 Months
Final Payment £3,757

I took policy out 17/10/2013
Ends 17/02/2017

My current settlement fee to buy the car is coming out at £5,800

Can anyone help or give me some advice smile ... Trying to work out if i can hand it back or best to run the term? Thanks

By my rough workings you can hand the car back in circa 8-9 months??
Just done some more reading it was saying the 50% cost paid is for the amount i agreeded to borrow.
Which is im looking at this right (probably not tongue out)

Car was worth £9,882 and the Final Payment was £3,757
so 9882-3753= 6125

So far i have paid 23 months ... which at 139x23 = 3197

so half 6125/2 = 3062 .. so i have paid just over half?

I could be wrong though

Voluntary Termination is the term you are looking for, lots of info around if you Google it
Just been looking, trying to work if ive paid over 50% ... as its not clear if its 50% on amount im borrowning not including the lump sum at end (if i chose to purchase)

Just added some calculations to another post, could be wrong if it doesnt work that way
