Had a bit of a disaster with the car over the Christmas. Engine died and needs to be replaced costing 1k.
I'm saving for a deposit for a 65k mortgage. I have 6.5k in account so far and save 100 a week with no withdrawals since October. Was hoping to save till April with no withdrawals. Will be getting a bonus then which will bring the total to about 10k with 35k income.
How big a deal would it be to have to withdraw 1k? Still saving 100 a week.
Will I get a chance to explain that the car broke down? I don't want someone to think I wasted it over the Christmas or something. I've been extremely frugal for months and this is a bit of a disaster.
