The “pay” part really depends on the value of the car and if you have a big pile of cash handy.

Recently instant SEPA transfers have made this easier, but not available between all banks.

Prior to SEPA becoming prevalent, I've witnessed it done with an id and credit check together with a decent sized deposit via debit/credit card (~€10K). Balance wired using SWIFT or TARGET2 within 72 hours of driving away. You have to swallow the card processing fees though.
