    Hi,


    Assuming the car is on normal finance, there's not an awful lot that can be done really, short of handing the car back or trying to sell it yourself.


    However no one would be willing to buy a car with outstanding finance, and it would break the terms of your agreement anyway.


    If you handed the car back, you may still be left with a shortfall, that they would pursue you for, so your options are limited I`m afraid.

    without knowing what your finance agreement t&c's are, the amounts, the interest rate etc......your question is a bit like asking how long a piece of string is
