struggling to know what to do for the best about our car situation at the moment.
driving an octavia laurin & klement which id keep for ever quite happily.
wife is learning to drive and goes to pieces in it, its too big for her right now, she needs an astra sized car til she gets more confident. ive been looking at buying a cheap, small banger for her, then it doesnt matter if she scrapes it, but it means we then have 2 cars and the related costs, when tbh we barely use the one we’ve got.
so, do we just sell the octavia and buy a smaller car for around the same value? possibly sounds the best option, but that brings up another question.
we’re not loaded enough to just go buy another car for a few grand and then sell ours at leisure. im sure many more are in the same boat when it comes to changearound time, so whats generally the best way of doing it?
is it wise to apply for a new credit card that allows you to withdraw money on 0% for a couple of years? in fact does such a card exist or do you have to use the card in shops rather than withdraw money?
loan from the bank and pay it off asap? part-ex at a garage? (but i assume id be a few hundred pounds down on the deal compared to private)
im interested in suggestions please.
thanks
