Car Update!

When I first started using this forum a year ago I said I was doing lessons and saving for a car.

Happy to say since a month ago I have my car!! I went for the VW Polo Match. Also managed to bargain them down slightly at the dealer on my monthly cost so that's always a plus.

I'm still taking lessons but not as frequently since I have my own car now, so shouldn't be long until I'm a full licence holder.

I do remember someone mentioning the VW Polo, instead of the Audi, it's more affordable and just as lovely.

Also to mention the monthly cost on a new car was lower than a used one which I thought was a bit mad. What doughnut is getting a used car for a higher cost.

I assume the monthly cost for the new car leaves a large balloon payment at the end which you need to also consider.

The monthly cost of the used car might cover total cost to purchase.

It's a 4 year contract, and pay the car off in the 4 years, there is no end payment.

I'll adjust my cignature.
