I am presuming you're not married

Are the children his?

Does he not want the children to be able to be transported?

Does he need the car or is he just making a point - if he sold it could he swap it for a cheaper run about to benefit the children and keep the diffreence in cash?

well its true the person on the v5 isnt always the owner but as it was a present I think that makes it yours. If its going to get nasty then seek legal advice about it. Keep the v5 hidden somewhere for now.

if you were married, would you try harder to sort it out?
why after 14 years do you no longer love him, werent they little signs years ago you could of communicated and sorted out.
is it really too late, he has been your life and love and you have products of that love yet your going down the route no one should ever have to go down.
just keep trying.

What car is it? If it is worth quite a bit then you could indeed sell it to buy two older cars. If it sells for even just £8k then 2 x £4k cars would be a good compromise and with some good haggling you can certainly get a very decent nice car for £4k.

Pretty sure the OP wasn't asking for marrital advice or judgments.

The post's about the car.

1 child is his and no we are not married we have in fact only been living together for 2years for all we have been together for 14 years i had major concerns about living together and they have been proved right he wants the car to make a point he paid for it there fore it is his he says.

Print out the dictionary definition of a gift for him, he seems to be confused over what a gift actually is

I think the car is symbolic.
If it wasn't the car it would be something else.
For me it was MY Kenwood.

Is he going to be petty and ask for all his gifts back? No, the car was paid for by him and given to you as a gift so I would keep it if I were you! Keep all your important documents together in a safe place and start putting money to one side where he can't get at it (give it to a trusted relative if possible)

Whose house is it?

Make sure you check out any benefits that might be available to you - help with rent etc

So he bought the car for you three years ago, but you have only been living together for two years? If he bought it for you, it is a gift. As others have said, keep the paperwork safe - preferably at another location than your current home.

Unfortunately, splitting up can lead to people acting at their worst. This seems to be an example of that. My ex thought that he could bully me once we split up, but I have proven him wrong - stick to your guns. The car was a gift, it is registered in your name, it belongs to you. The only problem that I can think of is that he might be paying for the car on finance and could just stop paying - is this a possibility?

When a relationship breaks down, it is a really tough time, especially if children are involved. I hope that things work out for you.

Take care x
