Credit without the crunch for Hyundai’s best sellers

Banks, building societies and supermarket lenders may be pulling the purse strings and upping interest rates, but there is still a lender you can bank on to help you get a shiny new car.

Hyundai dealers are offering 0% finance on the most popular models including the i30 hatchback and, for the first time, the award-winning Santa Fe.

For the i30 hatchback in Comfort and Style variants a 20% deposit is all that is required with 0% finance over three years. For example, a customer wanting an i30 1.4 Comfort at £11,155 would put a deposit down of £2,231 then make 36 payments of £248. Buyers choosing the range-topping Premium get even longer to pay with 0% finance over four years.

For those who want the space, style and fuel efficiency of the Santa Fe there is also 0% finance offer over three years. Together with the Santa Fe’s low running costs, this helping hand could bring family-friendly SUV ownership into the reach of many customers.

Hyundai have also extended the exceptional PCP finance offer on the highly acclaimed i10 Classic model. A customer buying mid-range i10 1.1-litre petrol Comfort could pay a deposit of just £1,617 and a first one-off payment of £254. This would be followed by £99 a month for 35 months. The customer will then have the option to make a final payment to own the i10 outright - or they can hand it back to their dealer and walk away.

The finance offers are available until the 30th September 2008. Further details and full terms and conditions can be found on hyundai.co.uk.
