How does van finance work?

Van finance is when you borrow money to cover the cost of your new van. A van loan can be a great option for many, as it gives you access to a van without having to pay a lump sum up front. Instead you would pay back an amount each month until the cost of the finance has been paid off.

Getting a van on finance is dependent on your eligibility. When you apply for van finance your application will go through a series of checks. This will check several things including if you are legally able to drive, live in the UK but also if you can afford the monthly repayments of the loan.

Types of van finance

We use a Conditional Sale agreement for van finance, which means you have full use of the van for the term of the agreement and it will be registered in your name. However, we will remain the legal owner until all repayments are made.

There are many ways to buy a van on finance. Other lenders might offer Hire Purchase, Personal Contract Purchase or a lease.

Hire Purchase (HP) is where you hire the van from the lender until you have paid off your debt, which is very similar to a Conditional Sale Agreement. Once you’ve finished paying the lender back, there is an option to buy the van outright. This is referred to as an ‘option to purchase’ fee and is usually around £100-£200. You’ll only own the vehicle outright once all repayments have been made and you’ve paid the option to purchase fee.

Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) is where you pay a deposit followed by monthly repayments for an agreed amount of time. At the end of this time period, you have the choice to either hand back the van or pay an amount to buy the vehicle outright. The cost to buy the vehicle is referred to as the Guaranteed Minimum Future Value fee and will vary depending on the make and model of the van.

You can also get a van on lease. What this simply means is you are renting the vehicle for an agreed period of time, but you will never have the option to purchase it. You pay a deposit, or a larger initial payment, followed by fixed payments over a set period of time.
