Choose from three options at the end of your agreement

Option 1 – Renew: Choose another car

With Ford Options Cashplan, if you would like to renew your Ford you can trade it in at your Ford Dealer or sell it privately if you prefer. You must settle your account, and then you may use any excess value over the Optional Final Payment can be used as a deposit towards your new Ford.

Option 2 – Return: Hand the car back

Your pre-agreed Optional Final Payment gives you protection against any unexpected fall in used car prices. If you would like to return your car, your Ford Dealer will complete a vehicle appraisal. As long as your car meets our fair wear and tear standards, is within the agreed mileage, and your account is up-to-date, there will be nothing further to pay. Additional charges will be made if you exceed the agreed mileage or if your car does not meet our fair wear and tear standards.

Option 3 – Retain: Keep the car

Ford Options Cashplan also gives you the flexibility to own the car at the end of the agreement. All you need to do, assuming all payments have been made, is arrange payment of the Optional Final Payment, which was deducted at the start of your agreement, plus the purchase fee.

We'll contact you before the end of your Ford Options Cashplan agreement to make sure you have plenty of time to decide which option is right for you.

FAQs

What is Ford Options Cashplan and how does it work?
Ford Options Cashplan is a variation of the Ford Options plan, and is ideal if you want to put down a large cash deposit and do not want to be tied to monthly instalments.

Over what period can I take my Ford Options Cashplan agreement?
Ford Options Cashplan agreements can be taken out over 24 or 36 month terms.

What happens if I have not made a decision and my Optional Final Payment has become due?
Please contact us on 0345 712 5490 immediately to discuss and advise us of your decision. Calls will be charged at local rates from a landline, but may vary when calling from a mobile phone. Calls may be recorded for training and quality purposes.

Why is there a mileage restriction?
The annual mileage is agreed depending on your individual requirements at the start of the finance agreement. It allows Ford Credit to allocate an Optional Final Payment to the vehicle, thereby calculating the monthly repayments.

I'd like to return my car at the end of my Ford Options Cashplan agreement.
What do I need to do?

Simply return your vehicle to your Ford Dealer, who will carry out an appraisal on your vehicle. So long as the vehicle meets our 'fair wear and tear' standards, and you are within your agreed mileage, you will have nothing further to pay. Your Wear and Tear guide, provided at the start of your agreement, will give you further information regarding 'fair wear and tear' and the appraisal and return process.
