HPI checks

A lad at work was looking to spend about £5k on a motor cycle. Was fed up with daft dealers so he started some serious digging with a well known auction site and narrowed his search to 5 machines that were listed. He was going to purchase under the buy it now and to protect his investment, he HPI'd the three he was serious interested in. Guess what ? All three were shown with outstanding finance. May seem like a hassle at the time guys but it looks as if it's worth it if you are buying private.
