Which end-of-term options does PCP typically offer to customers?

PCP end-of-term options are built around a guaranteed future value, which creates three common routes: you can return the vehicle to the lender if you don’t want to own it; you can exercise the purchase option by paying the final balloon (the GMFV) to own the car; or you can refinance or start a new PCP to get another car, often by trading the old one in or rolling the GMFV into the new deal. This captures the full range of typical end-of-term choices offered with PCP contracts. The other options don’t reflect the standard mix—one is limited to a fixed purchase price, and the other suggests an extension with no purchase option, which isn’t how PCP end-of-term choices are usually structured.
