Theft

Mrq I understand your frustration and anger.

And I dont want to be rude but I would''ve done the same as your Ex..get rid of this ''''scrapyard''''(to you its precious but leaving it for 3yrs??)

Going through divorce brings all kinds of emotions, anger and hatred towards an ''''Ex''''.

It was not scrap Both bikes were road worthy and the car was mint apart from needing some engine work and the house is not yet on the market. My solicitor wrote to her last year after she sold my tools on ebay that she could not remove anything whilst finances were being sorted. I also explained twice that I was not able to remove vehicles until I had some money as I have been off sick for 6 months. As for money I have no idea

If the vehicles were sold the person buying them would have needed the V5 documents and MoT certificates. If they have been scrapped the scrapper will have to issue a Certificate of Destruction to the registered keeper. Scrap vehicles can only go to authorised treatment facilities for recycling.

Were they insured or SORN''d?

What was the value if you sold them?

Er, would this not be a pretty clear warning that leaving any of your other stuff in her possession is quite risky? Especially when she sends you notice that they are going to be removed? I am sorry but you really did not act very sensibly. You''ve been gone for 3 YEARS, I do not think it is unreasonable at all for her to want the stuff out of her home.

What is the value of the car and bikes? I don''t mean what would they be worth if they were done up, I mean how much would they have actually sold for in their current condition? I can''t imagine it is very much if she sent them to the scrap yard, if they were worth a lot then surely she would have sold them?

She just got rid to annoy me. She knew the car was our sons inheritance. I dont have funds to move or store vehicles. She wont allow me access to get my belongs and the belongings which are clearly mine she says are in use

You didn''t answer the questions, mine or WYS''s.

They were all sorned. The car Is hard to value as it was a classic but around 600 as engine needed work. One bike was worth around 800 and the other around 500. It is not the money I am bothered about. Have since found out she got 194 from scrap yard for car. Still trying to find out where the mikes went

I think if you try to fight and argue about this then it will end up costing you much more than the values anyway. How much have you spent on solicitors letters regarding this already?

The fact is you should have removed these vehicles from her home. You did not, and now they are gone. Now you can either just chalk that up to experience or you can carry on fighting about it. If you fight then the best you will achieve is a Pyrrhic victory, not to mention fking your ex off even more, making it even less likely you''ll get any of your other stuff back. So I would go for option A.
