More of the best car deals
The best-selling cars in the UK are popular for a reason. All 10 cars on the list offer affordable transport, useful technology and practical load carrying solutions that mean they meet the requirements of the vast majority of drivers.
So how do you get a deal on one of these in-demand models? Between 80% and 90% of new cars now hit UK roads by being financed using some form of Personal Contract Purchase, or PCP for short.
This page is the place to find the best PCP deals on the UK’s best-sellers. Here we’ll try to avoid tantalisingly low monthly payments calculated on unrealistically low annual mileage allowances, very high interest rates, which can be bumped up if you have a lower credit rating or bloated customer deposits.
We’ll also keep an eye on leasing deals, as the top-selling models are frequently offered at discount rates, although these deals rarely hang around. We’ll search far and wide to hopefully find the right deal on one of the UK’s best selling cars that works for you.

Best deals on the UK's best-selling cars of March 2025
Here are our picks of the best PCP deals on the top-selling new cars in the UK for the third month of the year:
1. Ford Puma - 11,132 sold in March
£324 a month: 3 year PCP at 1.9% APR with a £230 discount
The Ford Puma was the best selling car in the UK in 2024, just as it was in 2023, and had a very strong sales record in March. Ford’s small family SUV has benefitted from a facelift this year to keep it on top of the charts. The Puma is very well equipped as standard, which is why we've chosen the entry-level Titanium model here.
Ford Solutions PCP Puma offers include a low 1.9% APR and reasonable 9000 miles per year limit. Vehicles are generally in stock and ready to go, too, so delivery times are as short as one week.
| Deposit | Monthly Payments | Optional Final Payment | Total Payable | Mileage Per Year | Deal Available Until |
| £4519 | 38 x £323.68 (£12,299.84) | £10,741 | £27,579.69 | 9000 | 30th June 2025 |
2. Kia Sportage - 7874 sold in March
£272 a month: 3 year PCP at 5.9% APR, £1000 deposit contribution and zero deposit option available

The Kia Sportage takes the runner-up spot this month, with dealers shifting cars to make way for the Sportage facelift that arrives later this year. Excellent value for money, as long as you don’t opt for the top of the range models, the Sportage has a practical interior, lots of standard safety kit and is relatively cheap to run.
The Sportage Shadow features black 19-inch wheels, black chrome detailing and front and rear heated seats, and Kia is currently offering it with a £1000 deposit contribution. A 37-month deal with 10,000 miles a year is £272 a month with a £8300 customer deposit. Zero deposit is an option, taking monthly payments up to £584.
| Deposit | Monthly Payments | Optional Final Payment | Total Payable | Mileage Per Year | Deal Available Until |
| £8300 | 36 x £272.11 (£9795.96) | £17,770.52 | £36,866.48 | 10,000 | 30th June 2025 |
3. Vauxhall Corsa - 6851 sold in March
£237 a month: 4 year PCP at 6.9% APR with £700 deposit contribution
After a month out of the top 10, the Vauxhall Corsa has bounced back to round out the top three this month. The Corsa is all about offering maximum value for your cash, which is particularly true of the Corsa Yes Edition, introduced last year and renewed for 2025.
Available with petrol or electric power, the Corsa Yes includes LED headlights, a heated steering wheel, park assist and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, starting from £237 a month. The 6.9% APR is reasonable, although this deal only comes with 6000 miles per year. There is a £700 deposit contribution and £500 discount on offer, however.
| Deposit | Monthly Payments | Optional Final Payment | Total Payable | Mileage Per Year | Deal Available Until |
| £2000 | 47 x £237.33 (£11,151.51) | £8131 | £21,985.51 | 6000 | 30th June 2025 |
4. Nissan Qashqai - 6844 sold in March
£348 a month: 4 year PCP at 5.49% APR with £2500 deposit contribution
The Nissan Qashqai was narrowly outsold the smaller Juke this month, reversing last month's result, although there were fewer than 400 cars in it. The Qashqai remains an appealing option thanks to a mid-life refresh, and quite a striking one it is, too.
Always a popular choice, all Qashqais can be had with varying deposit contributions depending on the model, from £2000 to £2500, although APR rates also vary from 5.49% to 5.99%. We've chosen a well equipped mid-range Qashqai N-Connecta here.
| Deposit | Monthly Payments | Optional Final Payment | Total Payable | Mileage Per Year | Deal Available Until |
| £5000 | 48 x £348 (£16,704) | £13,182 | £37,366 | 10,000 | 30th June 2025 |
5. Nissan Juke - 6471 sold in March
£314 a month: 4 year PCP at 4.99% APR with £1500 deposit contribution
The Nissan Juke was narrowly outsold by the larger Nissan Qashqai this month, but the Juke remains a very popular small family SUV and a good choice for lots of families across the UK. The Juke has just benefitted from a mid-life refresh, but retains much of the striking exterior look that has made it so popular.
A better all-rounder than before, the Juke is pretty spacious, has a decent amount of safety kit fitted as standard and represents good value for money - even in Acenta Premium trim it includes a reversing camera and Android Auto and Apple CarPlay-compatible infotainment.
| Deposit | Monthly Payments | Optional Final Payment | Total Payable | Mileage Per Year | Deal Available Until |
| £1500 | 48 x £314 (£15,072) | £9003 | £27,073 | 10,000 | 30th June 2025 |
6. Volkswagen Golf - 6447 sold in March
£309 a month: 4 year PCP at 7.9% APR with £3000 deposit contribution
The Volkswagen Golf is shorthand for family hatchback, and the latest version only continues that rich tradition. Facelifted in 2024 to improve the car’s infotainment, quality and tidy up the looks a little, the Golf remains a comfortable and refined choice.
Not the biggest in the back, but otherwise the Golf is a consummate all-rounder, especially in the Golf Match trim we've chosen for this deal. This 48-month deal requires a customer deposit of just over £4000, but includes a £3000 deposit contribution and a useful 10,000-mile per year mileage allowance.
| Deposit | Monthly Payments | Optional Final Payment | Total Payable | Mileage Per Year | Deal Available Until |
| £4227.50 | 47 x £309.46 (£14,544.62) | £11,374.20 | £33,156.57 | 10,000 | 30th June 2025 |
7. MG HS - 6337 sold in March
£329 a month: 4 year PCP at 6.9% APR with a £250 deposit contribution
The MG HS is a car that frequently appears in the top 10 monthly new-car sales charts. The new model introduced in 2024 features a sharper design and better infotainment than its predecessor, plus a choice of petrol or plug-in hybrid versions. All of which make the latest MG HS a solid, value-packed option.
Deposit contributions are available of £250-£500 on the non-plug-in model, while the PHEV can be had with 0% APR. This deal is for the entry-level MG HS SE at 6.9% APR.
| Deposit | Monthly Payments | Optional Final Payment | Total Payable | Mileage Per Year | Deal Available Until |
| £3370.03 | 48 x £329 (£15,792) | £11,232 | £30,644.03 | 8000 | 30th June 2025 |
8. Ford Kuga - 5949 sold in March
£412 a month: 4 year PCP at 0.9% APR
Well-equipped, competitively priced, a good amount of space and with a decent plug-in hybrid option, the Ford Kuga is now one of the most rounded family SUVs you can buy. And plenty of UK buyers agreed, making the most of Ford's offers to lift the Kuga into the top 10 this month.
Ford Options PCP has varying low APR rates across the Kuga line-up, ranging between 0% and 4.9%, while availability is good, with Ford promising to have most of the Kuga range delivered to buyers within a week.
| Deposit | Monthly Payments | Optional Final Payment | Total Payable | Mileage Per Year | Deal Available Until |
| £6539.05 | 48 x £412.30 (£19,790.40) | £12,925 | £39,274.52 | 9000 | 30th June 2025 |
9. MG ZS - 5907 sold in March
£249 a month: 4 year PCP at 6.9% APR
The MG ZS is a very convincing small family SUV for a really impressive price, which helps contribute to its top 10 placing on this month's new-car sales list. The ZS has a decent interior, too, plus a super-impressive amount of luxury equipment as standard.
The non-hybrid MG ZS SE costs from £249 a month, which is the car we're featuring here. If you're looking for a little extra electrical assistance, the ZS Hybrid+ models have £500-£750 deposit contributions.
| Deposit | Monthly Payments | Optional Final Payment | Total Payable | Mileage Per Year | Deal Available Until |
| £3054.13 | 48 x £249 (£11,952) | £8509.50 | £23,515.63 | 8000 | 30th June 2025 |
10. Volkswagen Tiguan - 5464 sold in March
£435 a month: 4 year PCP at 7.9% APR with £1850 deposit contribution
The latest version of the Volkswagen Tiguan already seems to be a hit with buyers, rounding out the top 10 sales chart for this month. The new Tiguan might not be the last word in excitement, but all versions are well equipped and, importantly, massively spacious, both for people and their stuff. This deal is for an entry-level Tiguan, confusingly in a trim called Tiguan. So good they named it twice? Join the plentiful buyers putting that to the test.
| Deposit | Monthly Payments | Optional Final Payment | Total Payable | Mileage Per Year | Deal Available Until |
| £5307.75 | 47 x £434.50 (£20,421.50) | £14,349.60 | £41,938.85 | 10,000 | 30th June 2025 |
Where does the car sales data come from?
The official data on the number of new cars registered each year is recorded by the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT). The SMMT is a trade association which aims to promote the interests of its members to government, other stakeholders and the media.
The data is for the number of car registrations in a given time period, not the actual number of cars sold. For that reason, the data includes cars which are preregistered and then may be sold by dealers at a later time in order to help meet sales targets for a given month or quarter.
What is the most popular car colour?
Perhaps it's something to do with the weather, but the most popular car colour in the UK is grey, and has been for the past six years. Not only that, black and white have rounded out the top three for the same time period.
According to the SMMT 509,194 grey cars were registered in 2023, meaning 26.8% of new cars in the UK were chosen in that colour. Add in the black and white cars and 63.5% of all new cars were ordered in the colour of the sky on a typical UK summer day.
At the other end of the scale, maroon, pink and cream were the least popular colours of 2023, accounting for just 604 registrations between them.
How does a PCP work?
A PCP agreement allows you to pay an initial deposit towards the cost of the car, either with cash or a part exchange, or combination of both.
You then take out a loan to be paid back over a set time in the form of monthly payments - usually over two to five years. This breaks the repayment of the loan down into much more manageable chunks, and is effectively you covering the cost of the car’s depreciation.
At the end of the agreement, you have the option to give the car back and walk away, part-exchange the car and start a fresh PCP agreement on a new car, or pay off the outstanding amount - at the point is when you actually own the car.
How can I make the monthly cost as low as possible?
The first golden rule is to make sure you don’t get sucked in by a deposit and monthly payment amount that you can only just afford. Think about what might happen if your circumstances change and the impact that this could have on your ability to keep up with your monthly payments.
As to making the PCP deal itself more affordable, if you can afford a larger deposit, this can trim the monthly payment. The length of your agreement and the number of miles you agree to drive per year make a difference, too.
Generally a longer deal with fewer miles makes for the lowest monthly payment. PCP is effectively financing the car’s depreciation, so choosing a popular car from this top 10 list should mean that it will hold its value well.
