PART I




Item 1. Business

Not applicable.




Item 2. Properties

On July 5, 2001, the Commission declared effective a registration statement
on Form S-3 (File No. 333-62784) (the Original Registration Statement) under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act),
and on March 8, 2002, an abbreviated registration
statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-84062) became effective upon filing
pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act (together with the Original
Registration Statement, the Registration Statement), providing for the
issuance by the Originator of
several series of asset-backed securities through a series of trusts to be
originated by the Originator. The WFS Financial 2002-1 Owner Trust
(the Trust) is one of the trusts to be so originated and the Trust issued the
following securities, consisting of Auto Receivable Backed Notes in six classes, pursuant to a prospectus dated as of March 12, 2002
consisting of a prospectus supplement and base prospectus (the Prospectus):



| | $330,000,000 2.04% Class A-1 Notes,
$440,000,000 3.04% Class A-2 Notes,
$380,000,000 4.15% Class A-3A Notes,
$230,000,000 Floating Rate Class A-3B Notes,
$260,000,000 4.87% Class A-4A Notes, and
$160,000,000 Floating Rate Class A-4B Notes.
| | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Class A-1 Notes, Class A-2 Notes,
Class A-3A Notes, Class A-3B Notes, Class A-4A Notes
and Class A-4B Notes (the
Notes) were issued by the Trust on March 20, 2002. The Notes are secured
by the assets of the Trust. The Notes were issued in fully-registered form in
denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof. As more fully
described
in the Prospectus, the assets of the Trust include (i) a pool of retail
installment contracts secured by liens on new and pre-owned automobiles and
light trucks (Contracts), (ii) a financial guaranty insurance policy
(Policy) issued by Financial Security Assurance Inc., (iii)
an interest rate swap agreement, and (iv) certain accounts maintained by the
trustee on behalf of the Trust, including all investments held thereby and all
income from the investment of funds therein and all proceeds therefrom. The
Trust did not issue any certificates representing ownership interests in the
assets of the Trust pursuant to the Registration Statement, but did issue
certificates (Certificates and together with the Notes, the Securities) to
the Originator. The Certificates issued to the Originator are not registered
pursuant to the Registration Statement.

Information as to the number of Contracts remaining in the Trust, the aggregate
unpaid principal balance thereof, the decrease therein, delinquencies on the
Contracts, collections of principal and interest made, fees paid to the
servicer and the amount of the Policy are set forth in the exhibits attached
hereto or incorporated herein in response to Item 16, below.




Item 3. Legal Proceedings

The Registrant knows of no material pending legal proceedings with respect to
the Trust involving the Trust, the trustee, the seller or the servicer.

fiscal year covered by this Report.

| | 2. |  | Based on my knowledge, the information in these reports,
taken as a whole, does not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such
statements were made, not misleading as of the last day of the
period covered by this annual report;

| | 3. |  | Based on my knowledge, the distribution or servicing
information required to be provided to the trustee by the servicer
under the pooling and servicing, or similar, agreement, for
inclusion in these reports is included in these reports;                                                                                                                                                                                        
|
| | 4. |  | I am responsible for reviewing the activities performed by
the servicer under the pooling and servicing, or similar, agreement
and based upon my knowledge and the annual compliance review
required under that agreement, and except as disclosed in the
reports, the servicer has fulfilled its obligations under that
agreement; and                                                                                             
|
| | 5. |  | The reports disclose all significant deficiencies relating to
the servicers compliance with the minimum servicing standards based
upon the report provided by an independent public accountant, after
conducting a review in compliance with the Uniform Single
Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers or similar procedure, as
set forth in the pooling and servicing, or similar, agreement, that
