ULPT request- how to repossess a car after buyers remorse
My friend (33F) recently won $1.6 million on an online casino jackpot and made the mistake of telling people. Now everyone suddenly has a financial emergency or thinks she's supposed to fund their life.
My friend is the sweetest person you'll ever meet, but she's terrible at saying no. She hates conflict and if someone keeps asking, she'll eventually cave just to avoid awkwardness or disappointing them.
One of her friends (32 F) has absolutely taken advantage of that. She first asked for a G Wagon then eventually "settled" for a new BMW... which my friend actually bought her.
It gets even messier
- this girl already had a car that was completely paid off and worked fine. Instead of selling it or even offering to put that money toward the BMW, she gave it away to her friend as a gift.
- She got a DUl recently, so l'm not even sure she can legally drive right now. The car title is in my friends name.
- She's on perpetual FMLA, so I honestly don't know who's paying for insurance, registration, maintenance, or anything else so it will most likely fall on my friend.
Now my friend is panicking and realizes she got manipulated into making a massive purchase and wants the BMW back, but if she has to be the one to say, "I want my car back," it'll never happen.
So... any ideas?
Looking for believable excuses, loopholes, or ways the car could end up back with my friend without it looking like she suddenly got buyer's remorse.
Even better if it makes it seem like the decision was out of her hands.
