You are probably making the right decision - thats what bankruptcy is for 'a fresh start' good luck and if we can be of any help, you know where we are. Melanie

Have a look on 'Parkers' on line valuations (use the dealer figure not private sale for valuation purposes). If you rquire a reliable and presentable vehicle to enable you to fulfill you job role, you will find that the OR can be very accommodating. Someone I know well managed to maintain their vehicle which was worth £8k as they could hardly turn up for their job role meeting clients in a banger!!

Hi
You can sell the car for its true value. Any less then the Official Receiver will automatically reverse the process and probably look at giving you a Bankruptcy Restriction.
It would be seen as trying to put assets out of reach of your creditors

if you are planning on BR then it would make more sense to sell the car yourself replace it with one that the OR will not question and use the money raised to pay for court fees, possibly use someone to assist you through the minefield of BR and maybe some some household things that you might need like washing machine, fridge, etc

The OR will allow vehicles over £2k on very rare occasions and IF it is necessary for a job.
In the event it is not you have options here to control your situation yourself and downspeck the car in your good time.

i am afraid it looks like you may have to, but the OR will allow a vehicle to the value of £2000 if you need it for work or special needs. |
