skittlesftw tells us more.
I'm the op (just made an account) I bought the car with my money, and since they drove the car as well they paid for some maintance and insurance. They decided to sell the car without talking to me first, but said that I would be able to drive the new car they were going to buy. Turns out the insurance would be too expensve with me on it, hence the FML. Not all bad though, they feel guilty so they are sorting me out with a car once i finish uni. (only just found this bit out)

if you're not a spoiled little kid and the car was actually yours (aka in your name, not your parents' car that they were nice enough to let you drive), go to small claims court and sue. if not, suck it up and get a job so you can buy your own car
So...parents getting a car for you, under any circumstances, means you're spoiled? I just recently bought my first car. my other car, mom and dad bought as a car I could use to go from the house to college and work without them having to drive me, more for them than for me. I had to pay for gas and insurance and any repairs, then they gave me the clunker when I graduated nursing school.
Unless they faked your signature and stuff to get the car signed into their name if it was legally yours they couldn't sell it.... if they did and you'd paid for the car to begin with then fyl.... if you hadn't paid for it but it was totally in your name and had truly been given to you then sort of fyl... if it was in their name and they'd bought it for you to drive tough luck.
Well put.
your car? did you pay for your car in the place? if you did, then you can sue them... if you didn't pay for it, then it wasn't really yours in the first place...
If your name is on the title they can't sell it
if it was actually your car (all bought with your own money not your parents') then you can make it so they forcibly have to either: 1) Give you the car they just bought (good cause you chose it) 2) Buy you a new car. Have fun!
did you pay for the first car ? if not then they have every right to, but if ya did, then your parents are bitches. :)
