• 0% finance 3 Nov 2006 (Forum)
  A Mitsubishi car salesman told me there was no such things as 0% finance on a car. The cost of finance was recovered in other ways, as I would expect, for example via a higher cash price. Yet a Fiat salesman insisted that Fiat's 0% offer was genuine and would not give a discount for cash on the nail.

• VW Finance 1 Jul 2005 (Forum)
  I have been offered a very nice deal off a VW dealership(Family owned) over £1500 off the asking off a passat. The only thing that I am worried about is the fact when I did a HPI check it had outstanding finance owed to VW finance. The dealership advised me that it was there finance as they had been at a closed VW aution and purchased 10 cars. They advised me that once I had paid then the finance would be paid off.

• Written Off Car - Finance Position ? 19 Jul 2007 (Forum)
  I have bought a car from a private seller as a total loss (cat d) with engineers report. The car is a cat d but i have just done a HPI that came down as finance owed (don't know how much as they could not tell me, due to data protection) As this car is a total loss will the previous sellers insurance pay the finance company when paying for the car?? and will the finance company take back the car even though its severly damaged??

• Hpi - outstanding finance, multiple reg plates?.. 29 Nov 2009 (Forum)
  Hi guys, Just did a HPi check on a car i'm buying (not paid for it yet). It states the car does not have outstanding finance, but a previous private reg does. The car's a CAT D write off, and the original reg was put on the car when it was written off. If the personalised reg is taken off a car, which has finance, does the finance relate purely to that personalised reg??

• Financing through a dealer 8 Aug 2002 (Forum)
  I phoned the dealership to tell them I had found a better offer and didn't want the finance, they obviously were not happy and started to tell me that they had done a deal on the body kit as I was taking out finance with them, However finance had not been mentioned when he told us the price on the body kit, although the saleman knew we were going to take some kind of finance out.
