A winding-up petition is a court filing by a creditor asking the court to place a company into compulsory liquidation. The court must make a winding-up order before the company is formally wound up.
The winding-up order
The court made the winding-up order on 23 June 2026. Compulsory liquidation is liquidation imposed by a court order, as distinct from a creditors' voluntary liquidation resolved by the company's members. L Oliver was appointed liquidator on the date of the order. The Official Receiver is a civil servant of the Insolvency Service who automatically takes office as liquidator on most winding-up orders. Oliver can be contacted through the Yorkshire and Humber team at PO Box 16647, Birmingham, B2 2NQ, by telephone on 0300 678 0016, or by email at YorkshireHumber.OR@insolvency.gov.uk.

On a winding-up order, employees are usually dismissed immediately. Wages owed up to a statutory cap, holiday pay, notice pay and redundancy may be claimable from the Redundancy Payments Service. The Official Receiver will provide RP1 case-reference numbers and the date of insolvency you need to start the claim. See gov.uk: your rights if your employer is insolvent.
Do you hold a deposit, gift card or undelivered order from Vettura Motors Limited?
Customers rank as unsecured creditors in the liquidation. Where you paid by credit card and the amount was over £100, Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 may let you claim from the card issuer for breach of contract or misrepresentation by the supplier; the rules apply per item, not per transaction, and the card must be a regulated credit card. Debit-card payments may be recoverable via chargeback.
Are you a director of a company connected to Vettura Motors Limited?
Section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 applies the moment the winding-up order is made. If you intend to be involved in another company using the same or a similar name within five years, you must rely on one of the three statutory exceptions. The Official Receiver also has a statutory duty to investigate director conduct and report under the Company Directors Disqualification Act 1986.
