Direct answer
Can I sell a financed or leased car in Luxembourg?
You can freely sell only a vehicle you have the legal right to dispose of. For a financed car, request the settlement balance and check any security interest or retention of title. With leasing, the lessor normally owns the car: obtain written purchase, return or transfer conditions before advertising it or promising it to a buyer.
