I wouldn't have been able to afford to buy my own either if it werent for my dad who kindly offered to get me a car and pay him back each month. I did enquire about a car before getting this one through my dads back pocket and I could have had one on Finance no problem, but I really don't want to ever be in debt, so I took the wise option and didn't entertain it !

 

It would take me far too long to save for a car myself, as I'm paying off an expensive holiday at the mo and it probably wouldn't be untill the ned of 2007 that I'd be able to get my own. I'm already drooling over the next car I want ! lol.gif
