Understanding PCO Rent-to-Buy – Why Is It a Better Choice for PCO Drivers?

PCO Rent to Buy Car plan is a simple and practical way for PCO drivers to own a car without the financial strain of large upfront costs. You pay a fixed weekly or monthly fee, which includes everything you need—insurance, servicing, maintenance, and breakdown assistance.
These contracts typically last between 3 to 5 years, and once completed, the car is transferred to your name. Many PCO drivers choose this option because of its affordability and hassle-free path to car ownership.
Highlights
- The Rent to Buy car plan is a preferred choice among PCO drivers for its flexibility and ownership benefits.
- Offers access to petrol/diesel, hybrid, EV, and executive cars.
- Plans include insurance, maintenance, and require no credit checks or loans.
