- What is involved in financing your vehicle?
- Purchase financing is an installment sale transaction between you, your bank and your dealer whereby you agree to pay the amount financed, plus an agreed-upon finance charge, over a period of time.
- Generally, if you plan to drive your vehicle for more than just a few years, you consistently drive well over 24,000 kilometres a year, you subject your vehicles to rough treatment, you plan to alter the vehicle's appearance or if you feel more comfortable with the idea of "owning" a vehicle, purchase financing is probably right for you.
A quick look at the advantages of buying:
• You will own the vehicle
• The vehicle will be registered under your name
• You can trade in your current vehicle to add to your down payment
• You can keep your vehicle as long as you wish
• There are no kilometrage restrictions
• There are no wear and tear limitations
• You may alter your vehicle any way you wish

Leasing
Is leasing right for you?
- Leasing is an option that allows you to pay for the portion of the vehicle's value you expect to use over a period of time, plus a borrowing charge and applicable taxes.
- When you buy a vehicle using traditional financing, monthly payments are based on the whole value of the vehicle plus interest.
- When you lease a vehicle, your payments are based on the portion of the vehicle you expect to use (plus interest) over the lease term, which can range from 24 to 96 months.
