Personal Finance

At Mercedes-Benz, we believe a great driving experience should be matched by an equally great ownership experience. That is why we put as much thought, time and effort into designing our finance options as we do our vehicles.

Agility (Personal Contract Plan)

A flexible method of financing a vehicle over a fixed term. The agreement defers your decision of whether you purchase, hand back or part-exchange your vehicle until the end of your agreement.

How Agility works

At the start of an Agility agreement, you decide an amount you would like to put down as a deposit and decide the term of your agreement as well as your annual mileage. Your Finance Specialist at your local retail site will advise you of the Optional Purchase Payment of your chosen Mercedes-Benz, which offers you the reassurance of knowing exactly what you will need to pay to own the vehicle outright in the future (this is known as the Optional Purchase Payment).

The Optional Purchase Payment helps you guard against the risk of unplanned depreciation and enables you to benefit from lower monthly payments as you are only financing a proportion of the vehicles value.

Throughout your agreement you simply pay your agreed monthly payments.

  • Fixed regular payments mean you can easily budget.
  • Payments are based only on a proportion of the vehicle’s value, keeping your monthly payments lower.
  • Our Optional Purchase Payment avoids the risk of unplanned depreciation of your vehicle.
  • You defer your ownership decision until the end of the agreement.
  • Manage your agreement online with Mercedes me finance, available via Mercedes me

Purchase your Mercedes-Benz by paying the Optional Purchase Payment and Purchase Activation Fee of £10. This will complete the purchase of your Mercedes-Benz, leaving you free to simply enjoy your vehicle.

If you decide to return your vehicle to us, it must be in line with our Vehicle Return Standards, as vehicle condition, excess mileage and other charges may be payable.

Pay the Optional Purchase Payment and Purchase Activation Fee of £10. This will complete the purchase of your vehicle, allowing you to part-exchange for a new Mercedes-Benz.

  • A significant proportion of the credit is deferred until the end of the period which will need repaying should you decide to own the vehicle
  • The interest on the final payment is calculated differently to the body of the credit as no capital is reducing
  • The vehicles resale value may not be worth more than the final payment, meaning that your deposit may be reduced for your next vehicle. Therefore, you should be prepared for higher repayments.
  • A 'Fair Wear & Tear' clause will apply if the vehicle is returned at the end of the agreement and may apply in the event of Voluntary Termination
  • You do not own the vehicle outright until the final payment is made
  • Your vehicle is at risk of repossession if you do not maintain the contractual repayments
  • Agreed mileage limited are imposed at inception
  • Excess mileage charges apply
  • You must maintain fully comprehensive insurance throughout the term of the agreement
  • You must not sub lease or rent the vehicle to a third party
  • There may be restriction on usage of the vehicle during the term of the agreement
  • Charges may apply for late payments or to alter the repayment date (these are detailed in the SECCI)
  • Any outstanding finance must be settled if the goods are sold.

Hire Purchase

A straightforward route to ownership. This is the perfect way to buy a Mercedes-Benz if you want to work your way up to full ownership, spreading the overall cost over a fixed term.

How Hire Purchase works

Decide the amount you would like to put down as a deposit on your chosen vehicle and agree the term of your agreement. Then throughout the term of your agreement, you pay the regular installments over the agreed term until the remainder of its value is repaid.

  • Once you have made the final payment and option to purchase fee, you will own the vehicle.
  • Fixed regular payments mean you can easily budget.
  • A flexible deposit and repayment term means you can tailor the financial agreement to suit you.
  • Monthly payments are not based on annual mileage.
    • *Manage your agreement online with Mercedes me finance, available via Mercedes me.

*If at any point you wish to voluntarily terminate your agreement, the vehicle will be subject to our Vehicle Return Standards and a maximum of 20,000 miles

Once your final payment is made as well as a nominal 'Option to Purchase Fee' of £10, you will own the vehicle outright.

  • A 'Fair Wear & Tear' clause will apply if the vehicle is returned at the end of the agreement and may apply in the event of Voluntary Termination
  • You do not own the vehicle outright until the final payment is made
  • Your vehicle is at risk of repossession if you do not maintain the contractual repayments
  • You must not sub lease or rent the vehicle to a third party
  • Charges may apply for late payments or to alter the repayment date (these are detailed in the SECCI)
  • Any outstanding finance must be settled if the goods are sold.

Personal Operating Lease

A solution for those who want to drive one of our vehicles over a fixed term, with lower monthly rentals and without the need to commit to ownership of the vehicle.

How Personal Operating Lease works

At the start of your agreement, you’ll need to pay an advance rental upfront. Your monthly rentals are based on the difference between the initial value of the vehicle and its projected residual value at the end of your agreement. Therefore, only a proportion of the vehicle’s value is repaid, which keeps monthly payments lower.

  • Upfront advance rental payment
    • Fixed regular monthly rentals (that includes VAT at 20%) means you can easily budget.
    • Rentals are based on your annual mileage agreed at the start of your agreement and only on a portion of the vehicle’s value, keeping your monthly payments lower. Capital expenditure is eliminated.

Simply return your vehicle with nothing more to pay, subject to it being in line with our Vehicle Return Standards, as vehicle condition, excess mileage, and other charges may be payable.

  • A 'Fair Wear & Tear' clause will apply if the vehicle is returned at the end of the agreement and may apply in the event of Voluntary Termination
  • You do not own the vehicle outright until the final payment is made
