Hey everyone,

Just looking for some help.

3 years ago, my now ex-partner financed a car for me. The car is registered and insured to me. My name is nowhere on any finance papers. I have been paying the loan regularly during our relationship and for the last 2 years since we split up.

He has been harassing me claiming that he will take the car. Can he do that? If I were to stop making the payments, does that mean he can take the car? Is it true that the car finance is his responsibility?

Thanks in advance for any replies
