What can a Baliff remove from a Business

Help, I nearly bought a car from a dealer but realised it was a repaired write off, to get a long story short, they refused to pay my deposit back, it's gone to court and we won the case on the sale of goods act.

The car dealership are still refusing to pay my deposit back, even with the CCJ in place and I'm now looking at inforcing the baliffs to try and retrieve my money.

My concern is that I don't know wether or not the baliffs would be able to remove cars from the forecourt or wether there will be some look hole preventing them from doing this.

Anyone out there been in this situation and can advice me please?:mad:

    As far as I know the bailiffs can remove anything except the person's tools of their trade.

    They can take anything considered to be a asset to the business and there is no protection on "tools of trade" if it is a Limited Company.

    Who was the judgement secured against? The business name or the name(s) of those who own the business?
