oh a sad day !
A very sad day for us today - we had to sell our beloved Jeep Grand Cherokee to fund our travels!! We have now bought a very tatty vauxhall cavalier to tide us over until we leave - god it's awful. Whilst trying our hardiest, to make it look slightly better, the door handle fell off in my hand, I hoovered up the handle for the seat adjuster and whilst washing it we ended up with twice as much water inside the car !!! And the worst part is that my dad has bought our beloved jeep and keeps driving past us and telling us just what a great car he's got !!God I hope it's all worth it!!
Please tell me things are going to get alot better?????

sad day
We still have 2 years finance left on our car, and was wondering if its just worth giving it back to the finance company to save us paying out each month and buying an old bone shaker, to try and save a bit more cash before we go, havent even sent off the TRA yet so i have some time still.

I am sure everything will be fine, and you can pick up another good jeep in Oz.

I know someone that did that, and they came up £3,000 short !
It may not be worth it. Try selling it privately first.
