Hi Emily5,

Welcome to the forum,

Just because a car is registered to someone does not make them the legal owner.

If you explain your position to your examiner and make sure you put on the statement of affairs form 6.28 that you don't own a vehicle, but are using one that does not belong to you.

If your sister can dig out any eviedence that the car is hers this will support what you are saying.

i.e. a purchase receipt for the vehicle, any finance contracts she may or may have had.

I hope this helps

Kind Regards,

Brett England

Hi Emily5

Fully endorse Bretts comments - key is the audit trail proving that your sister made the Purchase.

Even though you don't own the car you will be able to claim the running expenses in your income and expenditure statement

All the best alan
