If you can show you financed the purchase you can recover the money .

Cost of the exercise may be more than you will recover.

I hope that true.

As long as you can show you provided the funds for the car you can pursue the claim in the cival courts.

If the owner claims you bought the car as a gift you have to prove otherwise.

If you have any contract written between you and the car owner that will help more than a verbal contract.

You need to show you have an equitable right to the money paid outon the car.
