Sure, but I meant in general a more expensive new car will cost more to maintain than a cheaper new car.

Whether that's using PCP to afford a Polo GTI when you would otherwise only be able to finance a base model.
Or using PCP to afford a BMW 1 series when you'd otherwise only be able to afford a Ford Focus.

Warranty will cover most of it, but you're looking at higher insurance (generally), higher consumables costs and so on.

Polo GTI presumably uses a lot more fuel than the base version.

I take your point.

I was thinking of it from if someone is looking for a Polo GTI and a new one was too expensive for HP payments then they'd go for a used one than a base model, but i guess thats not always the case.

Never underestimate the ability of new shiny stuff to be able to turn off a person's common sense engine.
