If you still owe finance on a car your selling you can sell it as long as the finance will be paid off when the sale is made right??? I did this a few yaesr back with my astra no probs so i think that's right.

Now if somone did a HPI etc on a car and it said 'outstanding finance' do they actually get to find out the amount that is still owed on the car or just that it has finance owed???

If selling private you can reasure people by showing you are settling the finance by posting a cheque to the finance company (settlement fee) infront of the buyers nose, then they pay you & all is fine!!

no m8 it says that the car has outstanding finance, altho its pritty much illegal to sell a car thats on finance because the cars not legally yours to sell till you have paid for it, i think

Yeah i suppose it's just wether the buyer is comfortable with it i suppose Of course the finance would be settled but the money for the car is needed to pay the finance off.

Thanks guys

Mate of mine bought a Focus a while back...it had outstanding finance of 7k...which was the value of the car...

Basically when he was at the Sellers they called the finance company and he paid the 7k over the phone on behalf of the seller..THEN drove the car away...

That way he knew it was paid etc...
