What happens with finance when i part exchange

Options
Hi all,

As the title says .... i am thinking of part exchanging my car which has approx £3000 remaining on the finance agreement.

What happens with the new purchase ... does the finance automatically go on to the new vehicle?

All will be done at a dealership but i want to know what i'm talking about before i go.
A banker is someone who lends you an umbrella when the sun is shining, and who asks for it back when it start to rain.

    For talks sake, lets say the dealer gives you £3500 on a trade in.

    When the deal goes through, the dealer will pay off your finance, and you will then be able to use the £500 towards the deposit on your next car.
