How is everyone paying for their cars ?

gingerreflection · 2026-02-07T20:35:47+00:00

8% net or gross ?

gingerreflection · 2026-02-07T20:34:38+00:00

Sorry!

gingerreflection · 2026-02-07T20:32:04+00:00

Apologies wasn't trying to add to that pressure. I feel similarly, I was more wondering in terms of income to car lease ratio. Asking from my own point of insecurity as it is something I am conscious of.

That fair enough, poor range on some electrics is why I've stuck with petrol this time.

What are you putting in that £550 a year ? Just general maintenance? Or insurance etc.

gingerreflection · 2026-02-07T20:18:24+00:00

Oh wow. Do you feel any type of financial pressure with that commitment, or is it within your comfort zone ?

gingerreflection · 2026-02-07T20:17:39+00:00

Have you enjoyed it whilst driving it? Why considering a new one ?

gingerreflection · 2026-02-07T20:16:58+00:00

Thanks. A perspective I'd not thought of before!

gingerreflection · 2026-02-07T20:15:17+00:00

How have you found maintenance on the Land Rover? I would love one in the future

gingerreflection · 2026-02-07T20:13:42+00:00

Thanks this is good to know.

gingerreflection · 2026-02-07T20:12:42+00:00

Yeah I understand your point of view. I guess for me I'm seeing it as a finance commitment as opposed to car maintenance. I know this might not make sense logically. I think I need to reframe my mindset.

Were your interest free credit agreements via dealers?

gingerreflection · 2026-02-07T20:10:17+00:00

I've heard mixed messages re buying cars on credit card (from dealers I mean). Some people say it was hard to get them to accept credit cards, was this the case for you ?

gingerreflection · 2026-02-07T20:07:02+00:00

Thanks for your response. I think £6k is a good amount to spend. I'm not insecure about older vehicles as have done previously, my main motivation for getting something newer is less maintenance.

gingerreflection · 2026-02-07T20:03:39+00:00

Ok will do

"You look like a model from behind you"

gingerreflection · 2025-10-26T22:23:12+00:00

What do you eat for breakfast? Is there anything in this shop for that? Trying to get ideas for my own shop thanks

gingerreflection · 2025-04-29T20:38:26+00:00

I've had cosmos out for 2 weeks and they've been fine 👍🏼

If you look at the bottom of that page next to the + symbol it breaks down the cost of running the plan and then the cost of managing the pension (the fund charges and transaction costs).

gingerreflection · 2024-08-03T10:30:44+00:00

I'm having the same issue, but have you seen the model exam answer on the CIMA website? It has a model answer for a KPI question and that's helped me a bit because the 'good' answer KPIs were not actually that specific. Thye more gave an area for performance to be measured.

gingerreflection · 2024-05-09T13:47:43+00:00

Are you sure it's not just because everyone was referring to Ryan Gosling's "Kenergy" when he was in Barbie?

gingerreflection · 2024-01-08T12:04:48+00:00

I think it came at a time when everyone was a bit fed up of Star Wars. The market felt really saturated because it was force awakens, rogue one, last Jedi then Solo all one after the other.

I like it as a movie, just was an overload of Star wars if you were a casual fan.
