Also doing my daily car window shopping :rolleyes: (in a bid to stop my Snaggles moment and re-focus my head!!
)
Keep veering between
- something around £1800 - little choice, old, bigger risk but little debt incurred
- something around £2500 - bit more choice, still old-ish more debt incurred
- something around £4k - lots more choice (although still a bit limited), a lot newer (53/54 plates) but :eek::eek::eek: at the debt it will incur.
Many of the automatics for sale are big motorway cars, not quite what I need for pootling to the park with Charlie and back!
I can't see me getting the insurance offer before the next 10 days or so, so still not an urgent thing to buy but I need to be on the ball for something coming up. Just called about a 99 Focus. FSH, 1st owner was Ford when it was a demo, second owner had it since. Problem is that 1999 Focus had an old Mada auto gearbox and apparently are pants. :rolleyes:
Now if I wanted an old Jag/Merc/Volvo/Pajero that is big enough to live in and personally contribute to the whole of the carbon footprint for the road I live on due to the engine sizes, I can have whatever I choose for around 2k :rolleyes:"Stay Wonky":D

Thanks everyone who helped me set up my signature yesterday, much appreciated. Can anyone direct me to an abbreviations thread, think that NSD = No Spend Days but stuck on MFW and others...presume sealed pot is a penny jar or is it for saving for something in particular?

...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0
