Less Money, Mo’ Problems: Jen’s Bentley Is About To Be Repossessed

First Jen gets fired, now she’s losing her car? So far, the “Basketball Wives” star has been the only one filing lawsuits but now she’s on the receiving end of one—from The Toyota Motor Credit Corporation in Syosset, NY.

According to TMZ, Toyota filed a lawsuit against Jennifer claiming she hasn’t made payments on her used 2006 white Bentley in three years and now they want it back. The company states in its lawsuit that it made several attempts to peacefully repossess the vehicle but was unsuccessful, so now it wants the court to handle it and force Jen to give the car back. Toyota also wants the entire outstanding balance on the car, which is $92,310.

Jen’s rep told TMZ;

“Jennifer hasn’t been served documents in reference to this lawsuit. Anything related to community property acquired during the marriage, such as the car, is an issue that is currently being addressed in her divorce proceedings.”

That may be so, but Jen didn’t file for divorce from Eric Williams until July 2011, why did she stop making payments on the Bentley in 2009? Maybe her money isn’t as long as she thinks it is, and it just got shorter now that she’s cut from “Basketball Wives.” Hopefully her cosmetics line Lucid can make up the difference?

    BS news story. Bentley is owned by the VW corporation so her loan would either be through VW finance or a bank like Citigroup, Wells Fargo, etc. Not Toyota!

    This sounds crazy. How can you go three years without paying for a car. I don’t believe it they would have taken that car along time ago.

    why the heck would she BUY a Bentley? Especially when you know you can’t pay it flat out. you’d think her coming from a background that was a little more cushy..then living a lifestyle that was a lot more cushy was enough to know she should be leasing.

    They let payments slide for 3 years?!! But miss ONE payment on your Honda and they’re coming for it!!

    Live in the city, don’t need a car, rent one when necessary, cab it otherwise.
