Looks better than it will be. I had to use my small car costs savings pot, (that had already got taken down a chunk just last month as I've now broke down a 2nd time bigger job) I made all my minimum payments bigger to knock it down as I've now got an unknown car repair coming up which will need to go on a card and will bump me back up 🙄 will update in a week or so with true state of it.
