How does it work?

There are a number of van finance products available in the UK. Some of the most popular methods of financing a van include hire purchase (HP), personal contract purchase (PCP) and car loans. The right finance product for you will depend on a number of factors, and it's important to thoroughly understand what each agreement entails before you apply for car finance.

Personal contract purchase

With PCP agreements, you put down an initial deposit and then spread the remaining cost over a prearranged period, just as you would with a hire purchase arrangement. You have full use of the van during the agreement, but it still belongs to the lender. At the end of the PCP term, you have three options: you can either pay a usually significant lump sum – known as a balloon payment – to own the van, or hand it back (there may be charges for excess mileage and excessive wear and tear). Alternatively, you can use the value remaining in the current van to put towards your next vehicle – this is known as part exchange.

Personal contract hire

PCH is a popular way to ‘lease’ a van. With personal contract hire agreements, you normally pay an initial rental upfront – you then lease the van for a set period. Unlike PCP and HP deals you don’t have the option to purchase the vehicle at the end of the agreement; at the end of the agreement you simply return the van.


There may be additional charges for excess mileage and/or unreasonable wear and tear.

Can I get a van on finance if I’ve had bad credit in the past?


Oodle is a responsible lender and we’ll only lend to customers if we’re confident the lending is affordable. The interest rate we offer depends on your credit score.

If you have a lower credit score you may still be eligible for credit, but you will probably have a higher interest rate than someone with a high credit score (representative 15.9% APR).

Our pre-approval rate shows you what you will pay – that rate remains the same throughout the agreement. To set up your agreement we’ll need to carry out a credit check. Making sure that you’re paying your bills on time and that you’re on the electoral roll will help to keep your credit score healthy.
