If you are planning to buy a new commercial vehicle, you will be sure to find a Ford van that is perfectly suited to the needs of your business. As well as providing an extensive choice of used and new Ford vans, we are also able to offer a selection of finance arrangements to ensure you find the best finance option for your business.

You may be wondering what is a Ford Van PCP deal and whether it would be a suitable option for you. A PCP deal is a personal contract payment and is an ideal choice if you want to pay a lower deposit for your vehicle. After paying an affordable deposit, you will then make low monthly payments. You can make an optional final payment or start another PCP deal on a new model at the end of the contract. We offer used Ford Transit custom PCP deals along with PCP deals on new Ford models so you can take your pick from any of our high-quality Ford commercial vehicles.

We have two Ford van leasing options for you to choose from. Lease Purchase is suitable for businesses that are not registered for VAT, and at the end of the lease, you will pay a balloon payment which gives you ownership of the van. The other leasing option available is the Ford Personal Lease. The Ford Personal Lease allows you to make monthly payments, but you will not own the vehicle. Instead, you will be able to give it back at the end of the lease period and start another lease agreement with a newer van.

You may be wondering what is van contract hire and how does Ford Van contract hire work. The contract hire agreement is similar to leasing the vehicle, as you will need to return the van when the lease agreement ends, and you will not own the car. You will have the option to take out a maintenance plan which will help cover the cost of any costly repairs. See our available offers.
