Whether or not you will be allowed to continue to make your car payments (and therefore keep your car) will be decided by the lender, not your trustee.

Assuming that the bank or finance company you are dealing with properly registered their loan on the car, then the car loan will be excluded from either bankruptcy or a proposal.

When you speak to a trustee simply tell them about the loan – depending on which lender you are dealing with your trustee should be able to tel you whether or not they will let you keep your car.
