sometime in the next few days, I shall be collecting and paying for a new Teutonic motor from a broker , on the other side of the country.
He will have paid for it by then from the main dealer, and I will pay him in full - no finance involved - not far off £40 k and drive away after calling the insurers whose quote I have.
I have met the guy and he seems straight - but it's a large enough sum to tempt some people.
My question is - what if any checks should I be undertaking apart from the usual document check - the log book will follow as its ' Trade reg ' so I might not have anything apart from the broker's invoice. Will an HPi type check reveal if any finance is outstanding on a car fresh off the boat, does finance get registered immediately ? This is my main worry.
Car will be a 12 Reg
