You have my slightly mad car spreadsheet so that should help make some decisions.0

I just had to google every one of those cars! :rotfl: I like the A2 the most, but then I think it's just because it's the most girly one. Sounds like a good plan though.
Keep on forgetting I have the hairdressers today! Made a rushed booking on Wednesday to sort my fringe out and I'm so scared I'm going to forget and not turn up0 -

I like the A2s, and my current car crush is the little VW Fox
Fox is lovely, I used to have a Lupo and my boss has a Fox. Bulletproof cars, nice interior and keep on going. But far too small for us, A2 is the smallest we would really consider going.
Poolie I need to give NIM that spreadsheet it bamboozles me! Although.... wondering how much of the info I could find online and try to stick in during today.... hmmm....
ETA: Poolie what is the spreadsheet called - can;t find it in my inbox!Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008
Debt September 20th 2022 £2991.68- 96.92% paid off0 -

Thanks anyway!Me and OH spent hours (literally) last night finding out how we could get to Bruges and for how much. We live in the South West and we found a Hull - Bruges mini cruise from P&O that was about £150 for 3 of us which we were pleased with. But it would have cost us loads to get the train to Hull (about £150!) so after loads of searching we found that we could get the Eurostar to Brussels then the train to Bruges, and that's only £147! I'm well pleased cuz we're gonna go in December and so hopefully it will be all christmassy! So excited! :j
Thanks Tete for the Bruges idea in the first place!Total Debt (Dec 2015) £11,500 : Currently £7,675Lose 21lb : 0/21

My friend has a VW Fox, nice car but small as only has four seats.0 -

I must give my fringe a trim this evening I look ridiculous! Getting hair done properly sometime after payday :rolleyes:Fox is lovely, I used to have a Lupo and my boss has a Fox. Bulletproof cars, nice interior and keep on going.
Don't you're tempting me! Been looking on the VW website and you can get one for £5110 with scrappage ... Augh... Poolie do you know if the scrappage thing is still running out in October?zigmeister wrote: »I'm well pleased cuz we're gonna go in December and so hopefully it will be all christmassy!
