    I thought it was illegal to sell whilst on a HP / how likely is it that someone would purchase a car of this value if it came back on a hpi check.

    The finance would need to be completely paid off at the point of purchase.

    You can only sell a car with outstanding HP if you pay off the HP at the point the car is sold.

    I doubt you'll have much finding a buyer willing to go through this, to be honest.

    I have spoken to a friend of a friend who sells cars on the trader, he is going to get me a realistic selling price and put it on for two weeks for £30. Hopefully it will go, its a fantastic looking motor, top of the range, and only a couple of hundred made!

    I'll take it for £30 and I can pay cash today ;)

    How does the OP know that you could come up with that sort of money at such short notice ?
    Owing on CC £00.00 :j

    It's like shooting nerds in a barrel

    Hope you sort it out.

    You can understand why you friend would want the money he lent you sooner than expected - when he's seen you riding around in a shiny new car?

    I am expecting a very large bank credit very soon which is verified by the UN, FBI, CIA and the President of Nigeria.

    It does not get any better than that!!!!

    Good luck. Also use these two weeks to have a thorough and full financial review. Make sure you are ready and up and running for your lovely new arrival which is much better than a shiny new car :) The debt free wannabe board will give you loads of tips and friendly advice

    Not that I would ever lend anyone a large some of money. But if I had, I would be pretty damn "p*****" off, if I then discovered, that they were buying an expensive car on long term credit. While still owing me a large sum of money. An outrageous abuse of trust I think. No wonder the lender wants their money back.
    I can afford anything that I want.
    Just so long as I don't want much.
