The specifics of your PCP agreement will indicate if there is a penalty to settle early, but generally speaking there is not usually an additional fee. You should ask the finance company for a settlement figure, as they cannot charge you all the interest that would normally apply if you continued to make monthly payments, so this would usually work out cheaper.
