    hello everyone, I have a confession to make ... I've just applied for a loan

    Before you all kill me I probably won't be accepted for it anyway and if I do still might not take it. If I do it will be to take advantage of the low car prices at the moment, I will have my ISA savings and anything I get for my old car to have as backup if the worse should happen ( although as my employer is 12% profit up on last year and two people are leaving in the new year my job is as safe as they get at the moment.)
    Will keep you updated....let the abuse begin.....lol

    I had a brace adjustment 2 weeks ago, really hurt for a week to eat. :(

    am waiting to find that out lilmiss- it's 8.9% typical from £7,500- £15,000 but as mine is for £6000 it may well be more , did look at egg flexible loan but apr was 21.9%!!
    Might not be accepted anyway
