Hiya, I understand about the car completely - this is a journey we're choosing to take and it's important to live your life at the same time.
Have loads of fun with the car - will he/she have a name? I never name my cars but I come from a family who always name them

Name? Very likely, but wait and see the character. My 'normal' cars i.e. currently a Hyundai don't. My special/toy cars do. My last ones where Landrovers, one called 'Verity' one called 'Rose'. Before that had lots all with names!0

She will do once I have given a thorough valet! Been used as a bit of a hack, so needs some deserved TLC.
Forgot to add that started the MND book again and it has got more interesting as its gone on. I like books that re-iterate 'known truths' from a different angle and this one does. I am noting down the wisdom contained therein as next year I am going to write a very short guide to money sense for my son. Nothing special just things I have learned from painful experience and from reading books and learning from others. A short concise bullet pointed set of rules that should see him right and hopefully get to my stage of life free from debt, housing worries, work worries and with a pension to look forward to.0 -
