Epic

Buying a car has got to be one of the most difficult things I've done since I finished my honours thesis. the picking the car bit wasn't hard - it's a Holden Commodore VS, Green with a neat little spoiler.

The tricky bit has been getting finance from an online provider. I started the application process two weeks ago, chose the vehicle a week ago and put down a deposit, and been waiting for the process to come through. there was a sense of urgency for me, as the day drew closer to the point where I had to return the company car. Two months is a pretty good run for free fuel and an e-tag.
So panic struck this Friday when I dropped off the keys, called the finance company, and got told the check wouldn't happen till Tuesday. Graduation day. so turns out I'll be getting a car for my graduation. and a $5000 debt, but shhh. I can ignore that in the moment. posted by Keegan at 7:05 pm
