Hey - I thought I would update that we have made a decision.......
........and we are going to keep our current car.
I have just booked it in to get the timing belt done at £250but we need to keep looking after it if we are going to keep it for the next 4 years
. If the Uni thing doesn't come off then we can use the extra wage to pay off our debt quicker.:T
We discussed the option of going for a cheaper more fuel efficient car but I'm wary, scared of incurring more costs and getting ripped off and we know our car has been v.v.well looked after so we are sticking with our car which to be honest, we still love, 6 years later.
