This is true. The majority of people who buy on PCP never own or have any intentions of owning the car, so will not have any care about mechanical sympathy due to it always being under warranty. This is potentially worrying for subsequent owners.
Of course there will always be exceptions to this, I am certainly not tarring everybody with the same brush. Some people pay the optional final payment and keep the car, but this is rare.
Outright car ownership is very much in the minority these days, but its the only way I have ever done it. Sure it probably costs me more money, but I like the feeling of actually owning my own car.
Ive got my FK2 on PCP and have throughly looked after it, and I’ve no intention on giving it back when the 3 year deal is up. I love the car. I don’t care about losing money. Nobody buys a car to make money, iI bought it as a practical toy, which it serves me as.
However when reading stuff like this I feel stupid for wanting to keep the car...
