Another importing a Leaf from the UK Thread

    Hi all,

    So I have picked out a Leaf 30kWh over in the UK and I am happy with it's spec, price etc.

    It's from a main Nissan dealer.

    I did a motorcheck on the car and it says there may be finance outstanding on it.

    I queried the dealer and the rep said this is due to a bridging loan they would have on the car. He explained that this would be common for them as they buy,sell,trade large numbers of cars.

    He said I will receive a letter stating that the finance has been cleared before I make full payment.

    Is this anything to be worried about? Anyone experienced this before?

    Thanks in advance. I might document the trip if I go over. Cheers

    Sounds perfectly normal, does not make financial sense a garage owning all irs inventory, better to have them on short term finance and use the sales proceeds to clear debt and interest

    OK, Cheers. I should be good to go so I think :)

    My gut feeling was that it should be OK given the size of the dealer and the letter being provided beforehand.
