No you cannot just take it back. You will need to take them to court to get it back. Unless they freely hand it back.
They can claim they fitted new parts or have a financial interest. Seriously if they dont want to pay you, Then your going to lose.
It will cost you to take legal action and even then you may get nothing.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0 -
i didn't realise that the legal owner and registered keeper were different. What's the difference and how can i ensure I'm the legal owner?
Are you a driver yourself?
If you are the legal owner, you will need to read the Road Traffic Act and ensure that you know the law and accept the additional risks you will be leaving yourself open to if you are going to continue down this route."Dream World" by The B Sharps....describes a lot of the posts in the Loans and Mortgage sections !!!0 -
