    ...or just get a signed statement from the seller that they fully own and have the right to sell the car and will reimburse you in full for any claims by finance companies on the car. Make sure the seller's name and address is the one in the log book; don't accept any excuses.

    Good advice but if the seller has no assets the purchaser will lose out on any finance owed
