Selling My Car on Finance
Want to sell your car but you still have finance left to pay? No problem, simply contact the finance company and request written confirmation of the amount required to settle your current agreement. We will then deduct this settlement figure from the price we have offered you. On the day of collection, we will pay the settlement figure directly to the finance company, providing you with proof of course, and pay anything left over to your nominated bank account. (If you happen to owe more than your car is worth, then simply pay us the shortfall and we will settle the agreement in its entirety.)
