Just starting the process of an Iva. Question, how likely is it that I'll have to sell the car? Its used for work purposes, as my partner is a sole trader. Private sale value according to the web is £5300. Trade in £4600.

Highly unlikely. We had two cars, no problem. I think it's only an issue if they are high value.

Unlikely, unless an Aston or somesuch. No car = no work = no repayment to the creditors :-)
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
IVA Completed 23rd July 2013 .... C.C. 10th January 2014

I've recently entered into an IVA and my car is worth around £8,000 - it was never suggested to me that I might have to sell it, so I would say highly unlikely.
Can we climb this mountain? I know we can make it if we take it slow.

You would almost certainly lose both these vehicles in bankruptcy but not in an IVA. You need a vehicle reliable enough for five years and neither vehicle is excessive.
