Using balance transfer

Options
Afternoon all and thanks for reading / helping. 
I have £4000 credit limit on a Barclaycard credit card.  There is currently an offer of 0% finance on balance transfer from another credit card. 
What I really want to do is use this money to purchase a car which I know I will easily pay off before the end of 0% finance deal.  
However the car dealer does not accept any more than deposit by credit card.   Is there any way around getting this money that I am missing. 
Considered cash transfer on another card to my current account which would then mean I would have the balance to transfer to Barclaycard for the 0% deal. 

Many thanks for any input,

    Or just a promo money transfer card.
  • Find a car dealer that accepts a card.  Or better yet get a similar car from a private seller at a lower price

    It’s taken us so long to find one that meets criteria, within budget, and with some warranty. Afraid to buy private in case we buy trouble!!!
