NSW Grandmother Died with No Will - Can I Keep Car?

[Kyle135]

I lived with my grandmother for 18 years until she suddenly passed away in May this year. She passed with no will. Before she passed away, there was a verbal agreement in place that I owned her car and then paid it off as I could. I was in the middle of this when she passed. My uncle has taken the car and is going to sell it.

As I was paying off the car and I have bank statements proving this, is there any possible way that I am still entitled to the car before my uncle sells it?

Until/ unless your uncle is appointed as Legal Personal Representative
(which is what you have in an intestacy in place of an Executor),
he can't sell anything.

What does the PPSR say about the car?
