If you roll this into a new deal

Before any financing cost: at least £39/mo of extra capital over 48 months. Financed at 9.9% APR, it actually adds closer to £47/mo — interest applies to the rolled-over amount too.

Estimated figures are for guidance only. Your finance provider must confirm the exact settlement amount.

Your lender's settlement quotation is the only authoritative figure — this is an estimate for planning purposes.
