    Car booked in tomorrow to be sold. Am thinking now that the loan company for the car might show up with outstanding finance and I wont be able to sell. That will be a pain as I'm left with a car that needs tax shortly, a new exhaust and cylinder head gasket about to blow!! The joys eh?

    Just a thought - if you did sell it, its unlikely you would be able to lease a car as your credit rating is shot - unless anyone know otherwise.

    I don't want a loan to be honest even if it was possible. I plan to keep the money I get from it and add some moneyI have been putting aside and basically save a bit more to buy something half decent.

    Only decided to sell as tax due and needs work on it and car not really worth it. I'll do without meantime. No big hardship and I'll survive :)

    UPDATE


    Car sold YAY!!! Did start to panic a bit in the office though as they had to phone the finance company after doing an HP check as there was a query on it. But all fine and got rid of it.

    Now it's save save save :T

    Yes I'm very relieved. Feeling a little stranded already though, but better that than shelling out loads of money for a car thats not worth it.

    Thanks
