Your company is supposed to book only that part which has been paid or invoiced by you. Please note that if the dealer has not mentioned the expenses of Insurance and Registration then you are too not suppose to book those expenses in your books.

At the time of taking Delivery

New Vehicle A/c Dr.

To Dealer A/c

At the time of discharging the payment

Dealer A/c Dr.

To Old A/c

To Bank Loan A/c

Do not book anything which has not been charged to you by the dealer.

First you have to write off value of the old vehicle in your book. For this you have to pass the sell entry for old vehicle which should be the exchange value of old vehicle.

Loss on fixed assets A/c Dr (Cr in case of Profit on old vehicle)

Depreciation Reserve A/c Dr. (if dep reserve Account maintained in books

New Vehicle (under fixed assets) A/c Dr. (from the exchange value)

To Old Vehicle account (WDV or actual amount according to books)

For New Vehicle purchase:

New Vehicle A/c Dr. 553000 (Under Fixed Assets)

To Bank Loan Account 553000 (under Libility Account)

For payment of Insurance or Road Tax

New Vehicle A/c Dr

To Bank A/c

Hope all will clear to you
