Belated Christmas present!

For Christmas, we gave our son an IOU for half a car, plus said we’d take care of his first year’s insurance, as I thought I could just add him to mine.

Unfortunately, the insurance company computer said ‘No’ so we ended up buying him the car and he’s sorted his own insurance - believe it or not, they cost almost exactly the same!

We picked up the car today, although he won’t be driving it himself until next weekend as he hasn’t driven since he passed his test in October so my husband’s going to go out with him first.

I think my son’s done well with his first car, it’s better than mine and certainly nice to have something to put the P-plates on at last!
