Mummy is Mortgage Free Now Its Time For A New Car

Hello Everyone

Welcome Back

For those who don't know me, I am Mummyofonechild and as of 31/05/11 I am now mortgage free. Here is a link to my old thread.

https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/2239159

Now its time to regroup the finances and start to replenish our savings and save towards a newish car. I have given myself 3 years to save £6000 so that works out at roughly £166 a month. The first payment will be made on or about the 28th of this month as that is when our mortgage payment use to come out. I quite fancy a C4 Picasso unless anything better comes out in the meantime.

Hope you enjoy the ride.

    Yep here I am, large as life and ready to start again.

    I hadn't thought about a link at the end of my old thread too so thank you.

    Haven't spotted any stalkers yet though :eek:
