FAQs

Do your vehicles come with an MOT?

Yes, our extensive range of used vehicles come with MOTs, meaning you can rest assured that any car you purchase from us will be safe and legal to drive on the road.

Do you offer part exchange options?

At LMC, we do offer part exchange options, so you can easily upgrade your old vehicle to one of our high-quality used cars. With part exchange, you can put the value of your current vehicle towards the cost of a new one.

What are your finance options?

Here at LMC, we offer two finance options: personal contract purchase (PCP) finance and hire purchase (HP) finance.

How do the finance options work?

Personal contract purchase (PCP) allows you to pay for your new, used vehicle in manageable monthly instalments. A flexible option, at the end of your contract, you can either return the car or make a final ‘balloon’ payment so you own it outright.

Hire purchase (HP) finance also comes with monthly payments, but at the end of the contract, you become the legal owner of the vehicle – there is no final balloon payment to make.

Can I end my finances early?

Both PCP and HP agreements can be ended early as long as you’ve paid 50% of the total finance amount back. If you haven’t, you’ll have to pay off the difference before you can cancel the contract. If you have already paid more than 50% back, you can terminate your agreement at any time.
