You can trade it on a cheaper car and get the car sales to payout the finance. You'll probably take a hit in the pocket though.

Yes and its easy to do, the car yard will sort the finance side of it.

I always wonder why a prospective BUYER of a used car has the problemof checking of wether any finance is owed etc. Any loan should just be against a person/s , and be on the head of the bank/finance co. That way a few more people would probably not get loans on things they can't really afford , and the "repossesion" concern would not pass to the new purchaser. If a loan is not repaid , the financier should just be able to seize whatever else may be legally owned by the borrower (their house if need be) / transfer loan to any "guarantor" / take them to court / stop them leaving country- whatever. It just seems financiers have little risk for the rates they charge on the small % of bad loans they do , while giving hassle to everyone else.
