barneybrendan Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 We have seriously been struggling financially of late and it seems the only thing that is going to help is to braek the supra and part it out.I am putting a detailed list of parts together and its surprising how much there is .As much as i have held on in there with the charger build i am gutted that it has to come to this,but it seems that its the car or family and the car is just a car at the end of the day.Its also surprising how much a car can mean to you when you have spent so many hours on it to make it different.

drift_bear Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 sorry to hear dude! family comes first at the end of the day. Fingers crossed your back behind the wheel of a supra some time soon(ish) when its better for you! As said above, i liked reading your project thread aswell.

SupraStar 3000 Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 sorry to hear this and I know exactly what you mean. It seems these days trying to afford to keep a Supra is like a personal cruised. I hope you find a way to keep because being forced to sell for financial reason is shitty. Can't you just declare SORN and cancel the insurance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barneybrendan Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 unfortunately its not the case of not affording to run it as its been off road for 2 years now.its just we need finaces to clear stuff and the only place that can come from is the car.Big lesson is no more finance when yopu have a very well paid job as 18 months down the line you fall into a rut when you get laid off.

dangerous brain Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 On the other hand my man no-body will thank you for selling off all of your assets to end up still bankrupt. If the prospects are bleak long term then consider the various debt management systems that are available. The corporate world is all revolving around credit value but really when you drop off that scale the relative agencies will try and get you back on it. If it was me (and I've been recently in this boat) I would not sell any thing that cannot be directly attributable as an asset. Vehicles that have HP or loans against them are not assets that can be sold by anyone other than the owed agency) Take some financial advice from a professional before you start selling your life away.
