Honda’s compact MPV will be launched on November 16 with Easy Care Option, a prepaid five-year service and three-year insurance package.

The option, which is being piloted with FR-V, is available to the original buyer of the vehicle at the time of purchase.

Combining servicing and insurance packs with Honda Aspirations PCP finance means that the FR-V 1.7 SE is available to retail customers with 3 years’ insurance and 5 years’ servicing costs prepaid for £300 per month with an initial deposit of £3,222.

Monthly amounts for the 2.0 SE and 2.0 Sport models are £320 and £330, with deposits of £3,412 and £3,555 respectively.

The prepaid service pack costs £330 and includes the first five (12 month / 12,500 mile) visits up to and including the fifth year / 62,500 mile service. The package represents a customer saving of more than £600 for petrol FR-V models, or £700 with the diesel. ‘Unused’ services are transferable to a second owner, if the car is sold within the 5-year term. The insurance option is also available to the first buyer (subject to conditions).
