Fair Wear and Tear

Fair wear and tear refers to the condition of a car at the end of its finance agreement. If an individual has financed a car over 3 years whether that be contract hire or personal contract purchase, on return it does not need to be in ‘showroom’ condition, but must fall within the fair wear and tear guidelines.
