ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS

On April 11, 2003, the Commission declared effective a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-104026) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), 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 2003-2 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 seven classes, pursuant to a prospectus dated as of May 14, 2003 consisting of a prospectus supplement and base prospectus (the “Prospectus”):

$335,000,000 1.26% Class A-1 Notes,

$291,000,000 1.32% Class A-2 Notes,

$395,000,000 1.76% Class A-3 Notes,

$299,000,000 2.41% Class A-4 Notes,

$ 63,750,000 2.48% Class B Notes,

$ 67,500,000 3.05% Class C Notes,

$ 41,250,000 3.80% Class D Notes

The Class A-1 Notes, Class A-2 Notes, Class A-3 Notes, Class A-4 Notes, Class B Notes, Class C Notes and Class D Notes (the “Notes”) were issued by the Trust on May 29, 2003. 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”) and (ii) 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 Prospectus, but did issue certificates to the Originator. The certificates issued to the Originator are not registered pursuant to the Registration Statement, as amended.

Pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement (“Agreement”) entered into by and among the Trust, WFS Financial Inc (the “Master Servicer”) and the Originator of the Trust, the Indenture Trustee will deliver to each Noteholder with respect to each monthly distribution to holders of the Notes a statement (the “Statement to Securityholders”) setting forth certain current information required by the Agreement. In addition, and also as required by the Agreement, the Master Servicer is required to provide to both the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee a report regarding the assets of the Trust and the proceeds received by it therefrom as to the monthly reporting period preceding each Distribution Date (the “Distribution Date Statement”). Copies of the Statement to Securityholders and the Distribution Date Statement with respect to the August 20, 2003 Distribution Date are filed herewith as Exhibits 20.1 and 20.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by this reference. Pursuant to the Agreement, proceeds of the Contracts and other funds received in the amount of $50,399,858.48 were invested by the Indenture Trustee during the Due Period with respect to the current Distribution Date in the

Reinvestment Contract entered into among Western Financial Bank, WFS Financial Auto Loans 2, Inc. and the Indenture Trustee (the “RIC”), or as otherwise required by the Agreement, and $50,399,858.48 was distributed from the RIC or otherwise to the Indenture Trustee for distribution to the holders of the Notes and as otherwise required by the Indenture applicable to the Trust and the Agreement on the current Distribution Date.

No matters occurred within the period as to which this Current Report on Form 8-K relates that would be reportable under Items 1 through 5 of Part II of Form 10-Q.
