Citroen PCP

Does anyone have experience with Citroen PCPs? I am due to give my 3 year old C1 back to PSA Finance next month.


It's due a service (covered in the PCP) and the first MOT (not covered). I dont expect any issues with a 3 year old car, but I know it needs two new tyres on the front.


Can I get some part worn tyres added, or will they kick off when I return the car? I cant find any details in my agreement regarding tyres.

How worn is worn? Are we talking "getting close", "borderline", or "actively illegal"?
The BVRLA fair wear and tear guide merely requires them to be legal, with no damage to sidewalls, and no under- or over-inflation uneven wear.

If the part-worns are marked as required by law, then I'd imagine they will object. The guide requires tyres to be "of the same class" as those fitted from new. This is in the context of the EU tyre labelling, but ditchfinders or part-worns would definitely raise eyebrews.

At the end of the day, it's a C1. Even decent mid-market name-brand tyres are not going to be expensive...
