What's the cheapest way to buy a new Toyota Hilux?

What's the cheapest way to buy a new Toyota Hilux pick-up? Should I buy, lease or go down the PCP route?

Depends on what you mean by "the cheapest way".

Buying the vehicle outright will be the cheapest route over the long term. A cash sale will not add any interest payments or penalty fees if you cover lots of mileage or the vehicle gets any minor scrapes to the bodywork or loadbed.

If you do not have £30k to drop on a new pick-up then a PCP or lease will give you affordable monthly payments. But you will face mileage limits and may not ever own the vehicle. PCP and leasing is explained in detail here: vans.honestjohn.co.uk/cheap-van-finance-and-advice...l
