Here is what a friend of mine did, while he is not in the car biz it still applies.
A customer owned him around $30k. He would not pay up. So my friend hired a debt collector. This collector like all only charged a percentage of the debt owed. He's like 6'9" 315, all business and is known to collect money without much of a fight. Anywho, the collector shows up to the guys house around dinner time and politely tells him that he will have the money by the end of the week or he'll be returning and he's not going to say a word. I am sure there were a few other choice words as well. Gives the guy a firm handshake and leaves.
The guy that owed the money called my friend and freaked out, asking why he had this dude show up at his house with his family there and all the other non sense. Longer story short, he paid 20k by the end of the week and did not have a problem after that.
Find a similiar debt collector in your area and have them take care of it.
