Using the words “ I bought my ex partner a car” implies it was a gift which would make her the owner.Alternatively, it could have been a loan from you to her in which case she is still the owner, but she owes you some money for it.
Both of which are speculation because no one can give a useful opinion on the extremely limited information that you have shared so far.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.2 -
Sorry I didn’t explain it probably I borrowed the money from my mum paid it on her car but she says I am due nothing and I still owe my mum £16k0

If you purchased the car then it is yours unless you gifted it to her. Do you have the sales receipt? If your ex id the registered keeper it does not make her the owner.1

Is this your wife that you were divorcing? If it was 16 K it’s probably something that needs to go into the shared marital asset pot anyway.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

Whos name is on the invoice?Thejoke15 said:I bought my ex partner car with a debit card who’s the legal owner me or her
Who paid for it is generally irrelevant as to who the owner is which is generally the contracting party.2 -

Borrowing 16k from mum to buy your partner a car doesn't sound a great idea with hindsight.Mr Generous - Landlord for more than 10 years. Generous? - Possibly but sarcastic more likely.1 -
