I think that HP will have to be paid off before you sell them but I could be wrong.

if they were included as assets on the IVA then any cash you make trading down may be gathered by the IVA.

You need to check the agreements to make sure they are actual HP. It is highly likely that one or both loans is actually unsecured.

Hi

If the finance is not secured on the car/bike you are free to sell if you wish.If you are in an IVA you may need to pay the money that your receive, or the difference if you buy a cheaper car/bike, into your IVA

Wny would you want to sell the vehicles to get cheaper ones? Are they worth a lot of money? If not, I would tend to stay with what you have got as they do need to last the five years of the IVA duration.

Good vehicles will be vital for your sanity. Lots of us live in fear of MOTs and repairs on old cars.

Yeah not sure if its a good idea trading in cars and bikes for older models.

Im guessing the payments might be factored into the budget? Have a chat before parting with any of them!

The better the car and Motorbike the better it is to get through the 5/6 years.

Would love a new bike but looking after the one ive got and she saves me loads of money in petrol and running costs.[:D]
