Went BR with my husband 5 weeks ago and my OR interview is tomorrow. Am a bag of nerves!!! This site has been such a great help over the last few weeks and just wanted to let you all know about my car. Tax is due this month and MOT next and the garage have given me a bill for £350 to get it through the MOT. I contacted the OR as I thought they would be taking it off me but they have told me that as we use it to get to work and get the kids around they are going to exempt it! I am shocked, its great news but not sure where I am going to get the £350 from. Have no idea how it will go tomorrow but just feel things can't be any worse than they have been over the last 2 years. Will let you all know.
Great news! That was so good of them. I'm nervous about my car too. Its worth about £2700 ish but needs some work. Use it for two young children and for my job which is 100 miles away and I am a shift worker. Fingers crossed X. At the end of the day, if it has to go it has to go, but it will just be a huge hassle to buy a cheaper car that will probably cost me more in the long run to keep on the road. Let us know how it goes, I'm more nervous about the OR meeting than I am about going before the judge.
get to keep my car worth £4500
