    Good, then you can look for some cheap car insurance and put the money you save towards paying your debts. You can tell yourself that when you are debt free you can save for an all singing all dancing bells and whistles top of the range car and you will enjoy it more. Good luck.
    Find out who you are and do that on purpose (thanks to Owain Wyn Jones quoting Dolly Parton)

    As an 18 year old male I am amazed that you have not included money spent on nights out, maybe you could get a part time bar job so that you earn while you socialise?

    Good luck you are doing the right thing keep an eye on the small things that waste money as they all add up. I used to spend over £120 a week on shopping using my switch card (there are 4 of us though) now I take out £40 cash and we still eat well just learn to be chosey.
