Hi

I misred the post as Paul said - I was asking for clarification at the time of my original post as to whether it was HP or a personal loan - there is a difference on your rights - now you have confirmed it is HP, I too suggest that you wait until you have alternative transport before BR.

I sugest that a conversation with one of the financial experts will be worthwhile - Paul from Reviva UK or Melanine from Jones Giles.

I hope this clarifies - I was not trying to mislead you - far from it Richard

I think he misred your post.

If there was equity in the car after clearing the finance you may be allowed to keep this if you need a car for work. You are usually allowed one up to around £2k,

However if the car is worth less than what is owed then there is no equity to release on the sale

Hi
Barclays Partner Finance is unlikely to be a fixed sum loan agreement and more likely HP or Lease.

They are pretty standard in their approach and I would expect them to cancel the HO agreement, as per the terms of the agreement, and collect the car shortly after your petition.

you may be better to postpone the bankruptcy until you are surte of your facts and have arranged alternative transport.

Hi

Is the vehicle on HP or a personal loan - reason I ask is there is a different legal position.

I am not aware that the OR will make any exceptions on value - £2K is the figure.

Depending whether it is HP or a loan will set the scene. It could be repossessed on behalf of the OR by a local valuer, sold by auction or tender and then when the proceedes are in - you will be invited to buy a vehicle up to £2K and the valuer will "fund" this on behalf of the OR

Post back on the agreement, Richard
