Double outstanding hpi finances showing?

Options
Hi.

I'm looking to buy a car from a largish (Brayley, Milton Keynes) Mazda dealer. A RAC check shows two lots of outstanding finance, as so:-

Unit Stocking
HONDA FINANCE EUROPE (UNIT STOCKING)
Date:20-03-2017
Demonstration Stocking
LOMBARD SPECIAL SCHEMES
Date: 31-03-2016

One outstanding item would be worrying, but two:embarasse ? And the second is from early 2016! Should I leave this alone, or is this common in the trade as I know companies finance stuff these days?

Thanks in advance.

    Common practice, dealers cannot afford the cost of all the cars on their lot so finance them. The earlier one still being there is a bit strange though. I doubt anything to worry about but I would query it with the dealer.

    Customer had car on finance when trading it in, dealer settled the finance with their own finance and it has not updated yet so both are showing.

    Only been 3 weeks so the system has not updated fully yet?
