Horse as usual is a couple of fields away - SOR “ issues “ are nothing new and there has always been concerns over using which is why your own due diligence / personal recs should always have been a factor.
That said their review won’t prove exactly that complicated to “ pass “ no doubt.

SOR is an owner simply giving their car to a dealer, and trusting that dealer to pay them when it's sold.

There's nothing wrong with that model if the dealer is trustworthy.

What's the FCA going to do?

I will be interested to see how this plays-out in the real world.

Retention of title can be proved when an Administrator comes into the mix - inconvenient yes, but not insurmountable for the consumer to recover their asset.

I’d be interested to read their proposal(s) for when title passes, funds are received, and the original owner then becomes an unsecured creditor.
