Dacia is looking to lure British customers into its showrooms not only with low starting prices for its two available models, the new Sandero hatchback and the Duster SUV, but also with affordable monthly payments, albeit with a high APR.

The Romanian carmaker owned by the Renault Group said that the £5,995 (equal to €7,464 or US$9,525) entry-level Sandero Access supermini, which is the cheapest new car in the UK market, can be had with a deposit of £1,845 (€2,300 or US$2,931) and as little as £69 (€86 or US$110) per month at 9.4% APR for 49 months.

To keep the car at the end of the 49 months, though, there’s an optional final payment of £1701, a £99 acceptance fee, and a £149 option to purchase fee, which puts the total to £7,106.

For those who want to make a lower down-payment, with a deposit of £699 (€870 or US$1,110), at 9.9% APR, monthly payments are set at £99 (€123 or US$157).

Dacia said that the Sandero’s bigger sibling, the Duster SUV, is also available for monthly payments of under £100. With a £3,179 deposit, it costs £99 per month to get into the base, front-wheel drive version of the Duster (priced at £8,995) – see details below.

Both the new Sandero and the Duster are available for order now with first deliveries in early 2013.
