Keeping my car. (Almost definately)

Hi

I asked for advice on this board a few weeks ago as I had a date for BR and wasnt sure what would happen about my car. May 3rd was the day and it was so easy I would say please dont worry about it. It really does seem a rubber stamp job and no-one is interested in judging (even the judge)! I saw him for about a minute.

Today was my phone interview. It was fine, the young man was very pleasant. I told him I was not working at the mo but was looking and he said as long as I could give him proof in the next 6 weeks that I was applying for a job or had got one, even if only for a couple of hours a week then i could keep car. If not, I could sell it to one of my family for a nominal amount, in effect still keeping it.Its only worth about £200 so thats possible.All in all Im very relieved with how its worked out. Now I just have to learn to live without credit cards and I'll be fine!!!
