Should I pay a higher deposit on a PCP to reduce my monthly payments?
On a PCP, if I pay a higher deposit it reduces the monthly payments, I think. When is it a good idea to pay the higher deposit on a PCP?

If you have money sitting doing nothing, then better to use it for a higher deposit than leave it in the bank where it is earning almost zero per cent interest.
