After (me) breaking down in tears at the weekend, my husband has finally had his own lightbulb moment and has sold our car. We haven't made a loss on it as we bought it at a very good price just over 12 months ago so we got what we paid for it and it's staying in the family as his parents are buying it off us.
This means that we can still buy a cheaper car (which we're picking up tomorrow) and the rest will pay off a loan which will free us up nearly £400/month!
I cannot wait to make that phone call and pay it off!

Debt as of Sept' 2015 (LBM!): £36,351 :eek: (sickening)
Monthly outgoings on debt alone: £1243/month
We're on the right path, we got ourselves here..we're a bit lost, but we'll find our way back again!
