in Bankruptcy & living with it
On the assets section of the Statement of Affairs it does not say what value the asset has to be to be listed!

Is it over £100, £200 or what????

I have a private number plate on my car, which may be worth £175. I am going to remove that tomorrow and put it onto a retention certificate. The car will go in the bankruptcy with its original number on it .

Did any of you have a private plate when you went bankrupt? Did the OR take it?

    If the value is only about £175 - I don't think the OR will be interested. I had a very good Private Plate, probably worth £1,500 - £2,000.00, but it was taken when the finance company repossessed my car.

    If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

    Thanks!

    In this day and age even £200 isn't really a lot of money.

    My car plate has great sentimental value and I would really like to keep it.

    A personalised number plate is something you need to tell the OR about regardless of its value.

    Why take it of the car? is the car on finance or do you own it ouright
