That would be a waste of time and money as it has been declared that it's on finance, all be it at 0% but it still does not belong to the seller. He needs to pay it off fully before selling or get written permission from the finance company that he can sell it and that the buyer can pay them direct. This happens all the time with dealers, they simply call the finance company for a settlement figure and pay them direct and getting all release paperwork.

i must have missed the bit where it said outsanding finance has been declared sorry.. even so it checks if its been stolen / in an accident or finance .. i would also say imho you would bordering on stupid if you are prepared to hand over nearly 4 grand to a random stranger without first getting it checked out

If you were mad keen on it, and it was on a HP agreement, you could get the guy to get a settlement figure from the finance company, and pay the finance company direct, and pay the any excess of purchase price over outstanding finance. That way you know you won't left up shite creek if the current 'owner' does a runner.

Well it may not have quite the horses of the Fuoco but if you're missing three wheels this might do the trick. Light and nimble, It'd be ideal for a lot of your riding and would be good for you to guinea-pig the model for the Muppets!

Apparently nice little things (VERY compact), but can only just get to 60mph apparently, which restricts it to urban use.

Yep as above...If I do go down the new route, I would part exchange the SH ,,,as changing the number plate over is now a right pain. you can only do it on the internet...so I'll let the shop do it.
