Why Finance Your Next SEAT?
Financing a car gives you more freedom and flexibility than paying in full upfront. Many of our customers choose finance to:
- Spread the cost over affordable monthly payments.
 - Access higher-spec models they might not have bought outright.
 - Keep their savings free for other expenses.
 - Upgrade to a newer model every few years.
 - Benefit from fixed, predictable costs.
 
Because Holders of Congresbury is an authorised SEAT dealer, we can provide finance packages directly linked to the latest manufacturer offers, which often include competitive rates and seasonal promotions.
1. Personal Contract Purchase (PCP): Flexibility First
One of the most popular ways to finance a SEAT is through Personal Contract Purchase (PCP). It's designed to give you flexibility and lower monthly payments compared to traditional finance.
Here's how it works:
- You pay an initial deposit (this can be flexible depending on your budget).
 - You make fixed monthly payments for an agreed term, usually 24 to 48 months.
 - At the end of the agreement, you have three choices:
 
- Return the car with nothing more to pay (subject to mileage and condition).
 - Pay the optional final payment (also known as the balloon payment) and own the car outright.
 - Part exchange the car for a new SEAT and start a new agreement.
 
Key Benefits of PCP:
- Lower monthly payments compared to Hire Purchase.
 - Flexibility at the end of the term.
 - Ability to change cars regularly.
 - Suitable for those who like to drive the latest models.

2. Hire Purchase (HP): Simple Ownership
Hire Purchase is one of the simplest and most straightforward finance options available.
Here's how HP works:
- You pay an initial deposit.
 - You make fixed monthly payments over the agreed term.
 - Once the final payment is made, you own the car outright.
 
There's no balloon payment or end-of-term decision to make. HP is ideal for drivers who want the peace of mind of eventually owning their vehicle.
Key Benefits of HP:
- Clear path to ownership.
 - Fixed monthly costs for easy budgeting.
 - No mileage restrictions.
 - Great for long-term keepers.

3. Personal Contract Hire (PCH): Lease Without the Hassle
If you prefer not to own a car and like the idea of driving a new vehicle every few years, Personal Contract Hire (PCH) could be the perfect fit.
With PCH:
- You pay a fixed monthly rental for an agreed term.
 - At the end of the agreement, you simply hand the car back.
 - You can then choose to lease another vehicle.
 - There's no depreciation to worry about and no need to arrange a sale or part exchange.
 
Key Benefits of PCH:
- Simple, predictable monthly costs.
 - No need to worry about resale values.
 - Easy to upgrade to a new SEAT at the end of the lease.
 - Ideal for drivers who want hassle-free motoring.
