In this week’s roundup our top story looks at how car manufacturers are trying to encourage people to buy new models through PCP finance, despite the average cost of a new car rising by 1% in the past 3 months. The concept is that people would rather ‘rent’ a new car to lower their monthly payments and then have the freedom to upgrade to the latest models and specifications when they chose.
