Do you think you'll be given the opportunity to offer a small amount to buy the car off them or is it just the a case of they either let you keep it or take it and no negotiation ? someone on here once just that sometimes they take the car, auction it and release some funds to you to buy a cheaper car.
My situation is different. Am from Leicester and so far the bankrupt procedure has been too quick and simple like they just wanted to get rid of me quickly so that they can go on their fag break. some am hoping they wont be too fussed about me keeping the car.
I think the real value of the car is about £2600, its a R reg 7 series BMW but i told them its worth around £1500. (am not a mechanic so i dont know). I'll let them check it out for themselves.
To be honest i wouldnt mind them taking the car if they give me something back so i can buy a diesel car (fancied a change)
The OR's assistant said i should know in i few weeks if theres a problem but my road tax runs out in Nov so i dont want to buy a road tax and them take it away after.
I got the feeling they'll let you keep the car once you've had the chance to explain in detail how much of a distruption it'll be causing your kids/family.
Just been reading some of your other posts and it said that when you had your OR interview they said they'll send you a form regarding keeping the car.
When i had my OR interview on Friday, they asked me what i use the car for and i told them that i use it for looking for work. They havnt said to me that they be sending me any forms........
The OR assistant seemed somewhat sure i'll be keeping the car as she asked if i wanted it exmept. Then she said they probably wont be contacting for a few months when they'll send me a I&E form.
court hearing on Wednesday regarding us keeping our car
