Northridge Finance offers a comprehensive range of lending products for the dealer/intermediary market that can be used to best meet their individual customer requirements. These include:

Hire Purchase

HP is the simplest and best-known form of motor finance.

Entering into an agreement with Northridge, the customer pays a deposit and then makes fixed, monthly payments over a period of time, usually between 12-60 months.

The customer is the “registered keeper” of the car and responsible for insuring and maintaining it, but Northridge remain the legal owner until the full balance & option to purchase fee has been fully repaid.

At any point during the agreement customers can ask for a settlement figure, allowing them to pay a lump sum that clears the balance to take ownership of the car, we do not charge any fees or penalties to settle early .

  • Simple and easy form of motor finance
  • Payment terms usually between 12 and 60 months
  • Repayments fixed at the same amount throughout the agreement
  • You will become the owner of the car when the final repayment + Option to purchase fee is made

Personal Contract Purchase (PCP)

PCP is a variation of Hire Purchase. The main difference is that Northridge estimates a fixed value for the car at the end of the agreement, called the Guaranteed Minimum Future Value (GMFV).

The GMFV is the key to PCP, and is based on a number of factors, such as the cars age and agreed mileage (minimum 8,000 miles per annum).

Deferring the GMFV to the end of the agreement means that both the upfront deposit you pay and your fixed monthly payments will tend to be lower than those on a comparable HP agreement over the same period.

At the end of the agreement, you have a choice whether to pay off the GMFV to take ownership of the car, return it to Northridge in good condition and within the mileage allowance or refinance the remaining GMFV via our Direct Sales department (subject to credit checks & Terms and Conditions).

  • Lower deposit and monthly payments than HP for a comparable car and term
  • Flexibility at the end of the agreement on what you would like to do with the car
  • Fixed monthly payments throughout the term of the agreement
  • If you return the car in poor condition, exceeded mileage allowance and any damage may result in charges
