We took the Volvo out for a drive yesterday and decided to wash the car. While we were waiting in the long line we decided to go car hunting. Fredrik's work mates have definately said we need to get a bigger car. :( (We really like our car.)
First we went to Skoda and they have some new nice 2007s. And then we decided to go back to the Volvo dealership (we went last week, too) and look at the used cars and check out the Fords, too. We went there and they have some new 2007 Fords for a very, very good price: 60 000 SEK off the original price (~10 000$).
We asked the Volvo dealer how much they would give us for our Volvo for a trade-in. And it was 20 000 SEK (~3 000$) less then the amount the Skoda dealer said..! So, we are going to sell the Volvo ourselves no matter what.
But now we can't decide if we should go ahead and take the good deal on the 2007 Ford Mondeo and have the extra room for moving stuff back and forth (have a hitch put on the car, too, before we take it home) or just wait. And Fredrik said it won't fit in our tiny garage here, and I said that that would be okay, because if we move, we can use the garage to store packed boxes! And anything bigger than our Volvo now won't fit in the garage anyways...
We have plenty of time before the baby shows up to buy any kind of bigger car. But we would really like to buy a new car and this is a really good deal. And if we end up moving, we would end up with NO loans to getting 2 loans at the same time.
I think that I want to go ahead and put our car up for sale and reserve one of the Fords, but I think Fredrik is a little hesitant and wants to wait.. although I'm not sure why. :/ Cause whether we move or not, we still need to get a bigger car.. And who knows how long the Fords will be an option.
Fredrik definately prefers the Ford over the Skoda, but if we miss the deal, then we could end up with the Skoda anyways.
Hmmmm....
Decisions.. :/
More later today.
