Financial Burden - You won't believe it!

Headline Figures and confusion marketing hides the real cost…

Competition in the New car market is intense, with car dealers using clever marketing tactics to entice new customers.  

Headline prices look very attractive, until you unravel the small print and reveal the real running cost of a new vehicle.

 
The REAL cost of driving a New Car REVEALED

The cost of car ownership is hitting drivers hard and research demonstrates that running a car is a huge financial commitment, often accounting for a substantial percentage of household income. What you spend on finance, repairs, tax and insurance could buy you a home in most parts of the UK, and that’s without accounting for fuel.

Why do people want a New Car?

Driving a new car can give people a great sense of self-worth and freedom, so it might be the case that they consider its worth the cost., even though it means sacrificing so much. Are you ready for the automotive industry revolution…

Depreciation

If you are on finance whether that be via PCP or HP depreciation of the vehicle will affect you because the cost of that depreciation must be accounted for somewhere. This could affect you in the amount you pay each month, your final payment or both and certainly if you opt for ownership at the end of your contract.

Hire Purchase HP v Personal contract plan PCP

In the image above, you can see a comparison between two of the most popular methods of funding the use of a New car. A third option is to buy the car outright, but not many people have £20,000 collecting dust.

This is how HP works

Hire purchase (HP) is a type of borrowing. It is different from other types of borrowing because you don't own the goods until you have paid in full. Under an HP agreement, you hire the goods and then pay an agreed amount by instalments. Until you’ve paid a third of the total amount payable the lender can repossess the car without a court order.

Ownership

If you want to own the car at the end of the HP, you’ll have to pay a final payment as agreed in the original agreement terms.

This is how a PCP works

A personal contract plan (PCP) deal will offer flexible terms, which include low monthly payments and most often a low rate of interest. But there can be negatives that can have a negative impact if you're not careful, so read the small print carefully.

Minor Damage

The small print of the personal contract plan usually include financial penalties for minor damage to the car while it's in your possession.

Mileage Limit

If you exceed the stated mileage limit, there is usually cost per excess mile penalty to pay too. You need to be fully conversant with the facts when choosing between HP and a PCP agreement. Depending on the terms of the PCP it might be cheaper to opt for a HP agreement instead.

Ownership

If you want to own the car at the end of the PCP, you’ll have to pay an often-substantial final payment, known as a balloon payment.

Other costs operating costs

So now you have decided how to fund your car, you must consider other running costs.

Servicing and Repairs

Servicing is an extra cost you can opt for at the beginning of the agreement, or you can pay as you go, the cost will vary according to your car and mileage. Its estimated that average cost of an annual service across the industry is £425, if you have the car for a 24 month period you would normally only need to pay for one service.

Warranty

If you only plan to have your car over a two year period any faults with the car should be covered under the manufacturer’s warranty.

Insurance Cost

According to recent polls, British drivers are likely to spend an average £752 per year on their annual car insurance in the UK.

Popularity of PCP

The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders, recently reported that about 80 per cent of new cars in the UK are supplied via Personal Contract Plans. Are you ready for the automotive industry revolution…

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

Choosing a Good Tuner is as important as choosing a Good Doctor.

You will be presented with a bewildering selection of companies, all claiming to be the best in the industry. Unfortunately the industry has been flooded with “Get Rich Quick” merchants all desperate to take your money from you. In many cases the “Get Rich Quick” operators have invested in “Cloned” counterfeit remapping tools off the internet. They have little “if any” industry knowledge, experience or liability insurance…

Don’t get sucked in by a good story and what appears to be an incredible price. Instead of taking the word of self-acclaimed tuning experts, a search on google will reveal some very interesting, yet disturbing facts about a few “so called” professionals. Unlike some testimonials “Bert for Bognor says we are Brill” our customers are real people. Don’t take our word for it, ask the people that know best “Our Customers”

I went for a remap on my T5 as it had an awful flat spot around 2800 rev's I got great personal service and its like having a new engine in the van smooth power and greater economy.... Highly recommended wish I'd done it months ago it would have paid for it self already thanks a lot hills are no longer a drag.

Adrian McManus

Popped in to see Mike on Friday to have my A4 2.0TDi 170hp remapped. Have to say I was a little pessimistic at first having being told by another firm that remaps on these were a nightmare so was expecting the worst! Thankfully, nothing of the sort, straight in, one error message unknown but Mike worked it out and all done in no time. Straight out for a test run and the drive is very different, certainly mid ranged (where these engines seem to suffer) pulls away nicely and can definitely feel the benefit. Best money I've ever spent on a car in, well, forever! Thanks again Mike

Mark Patterson

Had the ECU my 320D remapped by Mike yesterday. Very impressed with the results. Noticed it straight away after having it done. Service was also great, talked me through all of it to get exactly what I wanted out of it. Highly recommend mpg tuning.

James Aston

Took my Civic Mk VIII 2.2 CDTI to Mike following a recommendation from a friend who's had his last few cars remapped at MPG., professional service and answered any questions I had. Customised remap that gave me a good balance between performance and economy. Mike was happy to let me watch the whole procedure and explained what he was doing. Makes a good brew as well! Would highly recommend, Will definitely bring my future motors here.
