Skyline D		(Mon 13:21 29/Jun/09) It can be done provided the finance company consider you a good risk. Effectively you have negative equity on the old vehicle but they will still potentially lend you �17,500 secured on the new one to buy the car and clear the existing debt. Likely they'd want a reasonable cash deposit also though.
chrisemmott		(Wed 12:31 01/Jul/09) It would be higly unlikely that the finance company would lend �17,500 on a vehicle valued at only �15,000. Your existing finance company would require full settlement of the existing agreement before they release their interest in the vehicle. The new company may however finance the additional money on a non secured basis (therefore not secured on the new car), depending on your credit status.
