Just before Christmas my car went bust and the repair bills were too much so I had to get it scrapped. I needed a car for work so just bought a £200 auction can as need a car for work. The MOT is due to expire on this soon and there no chance of it passing.
My parents want to help out and buy me a car for work and family. Still an old car but a bit more reliable. Probably around 8 or 10 years old around 2k.
What implications will this have on my IVA? What do I need to do to make sure I dont breach anything?
As they live far away they were thinking of transfering the money to my wife (not in IVA and no financial ties).

Can't they just buy it direct for you?
IVA started March 2011, Completed March 2016 and certificate issued 11 days after final payment. It was not always easy but then some of the best decisions aren't.

I can see no problem with them gifting you a modest car (which they can confirm if ever asked).
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.

I see no problem at all but just advise your IP to keep everything right.

Just a thought - depending on where you are with your IVA is it possible your parents have funds to help you out with a F&F offer to complete the IVA early...?

Hi

Can't see any problems, as long as the money is a gift or the new car remains their property

Good luck
