Looking for advice, planning on buying a new car privately.
According to the garda site they suggest not to pay cash so what is the best way after deal has been struck ?
Surely if a cheque is written, the vendor wont give car until funds are confirmed and in the meantime they could do a runner ? Bank draft is like cash too.
Also I will ask about finance and will check at Hire Purchase Info Centre for €15. What if there is finance ? Do I make cheque payable to finance company and get vendor to pay balance and get confirmation from finance company ?
Any suggestions :?
Also If I were to get the AA to inspect would vendors be likely to pay the fee or go halves on it ?
