Using balance transfer

in Credit cards
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,
