Howdy,
Just wanted to know what the standard practice was with regards to buying a car from a dealer via a bank transfer. For example would a dealer accept bank transfer and let you drive away same day ?

No, because they take 24 hours minimum to show up in the receivers account........

I paid for my last car with bank cheque and drove it home that day.
I didn't just whip out the old cheque book in the dealership and scribble down $26k and chuck it on the table, it was a printed off cheque with receipt from the bank and using funds from my savings account. |

A bank cheque also takes time to process and show as available funds...
Just wondering if anyone has ever direct deposited to a dealer before ? Sent from my GT-N7105T using Tapatalk

You could probably arrange with your bank to provide the dealer with a remittance advice, which is basically the banks word that the money has been transferred. Other option is, if you know who they bank, go to an actual branch and deposit money there, it should either clear straight away, or they can provide the dealer with a receipt to say that it has been paid.

unless you look like a crook, dealer will be more than happy to accept a bank cheque.
bank cheque with photcopy of your ID = CASH for dealers Bought plenty of cars from dealers and used bank cheques no problems what so ever. Most dealers don't really like large sums in cash that much as it has its own risks, although no one will ever turn you down. can't comment on transfer sorry. |

Paid for all my cars using a bank cheque. The last one didn't even pay for the cheque as I asked to get it waved due to the amount.
