Different OR's attitudes to cars...and stuff

    I have been paying 2 years for my car on fords 3 year options. I am in the final year. Problem is, I do need my car as I can not walk too far because of pain so it would make taking kids to school a problem. I don't need it for work purposes but, do take my hubby back and to, to work now and then 4 miles away. I was allowed to keep it on the iva and they do have a clause in their paperwork about it so think if OR doesn't take it fords will. My hubby says we have never missed a payment with them in 7 years of being with them, so they should be ok to keep it but, won,t hold my breath.
    :rolleyes: Money Talks ...
    but all mine ever says is Goodbye! :rolleyes:

    Hi :)

    Discussing the variation in examiner's decisions is fair game, but please could people refrain from discussing the affairs of a third party who doesn't post here (even if they are famous)?

    The discussions are useful, so I would prefer they weren't "zapped" by the powers that be if you get my meaning. ;)

    I never mentioned Kerry Katona or here Boobs, but i have to say i hope the rumers of a reduction are unfounded:o :p :rotfl:
    Thats it, i am done, Blind-as-a-Bat has left the forum, for good this time, there is no way I can recover this account, as the password was random, and not recorded, and the email used no longer exits, nor can be recovered to recover the account, goodbye all …………. :(

    You need to remove the "?v=0" bit from the end before you post a pic from from flickr. ;)

    Busted? :D

    No worries Phil, we all, feel like that from time to time.
