My IVA proposal was accepted on 4/9 with my first payment due on 1/10. During the period the IVA will run my car agreement will come up for renewal. What are people's experiences with dealing with the balloon payment at the end or replacing the car? Really can't do without it lol
Hi. Your IP should have discussed this with you. You are very unlikely to be able to finance the balloon payment or to lease a new vehicle. Most of us make do with "eBay Specials" until we come out the other side. Alternatively see if a friend or relative can finance a replacement for you.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.

Renewing cars has been a well versed topic for some time. I was told by my IP, no issues in renewing your PCP during IVA. Which would have been true had every finance house in Christendom not ushered away my applications like I had the plague. I wasn't lied to but was also not told the whole truth.
Last Payment made 04/12/14. Completion Certificate 25/7/15. IVA company GT. No Issues

Don't think I have seen one renewed yet.

The best option is an interest free loan from a family member if this is at all possible. The IP can sanction repayment of the loan at the existing amount until the loan has been repaid.

Depends on what is in your agreement. You may need to speak to your IP.

I doubt that the car company will allow you to do this anyway -- if they did agree you would also have to get the approval of your IP.

I have told the ip about this and he said it was ok to do that but I'm scared now cause you all say it's not
We don't say no - it's just that car finance firm may not agree to it.
