 |
|
I'm actually doing a summer job right now, with the cash I earn here I'm gonna pay a cheap used car. Probably around 1000 and 1500 Euro's. But the ''bad news'' is that in Belgium If you buy a car you need to be insured. So thats another 900 euros a year if I put the insurance on my name. 400 euro if I put it on my fathers. Than another 240 Euro's to get my license plate and stuff
Its a lot more than just the car that I have to pay. 
How did you guys did it? |

I had my first car handed down to me, the first car I purchased on my own, I shopped around for car loans until I found a reasonable rate.

So you see how much it costs? If I calculate it to dollars I'm paying $3000 to $3600 for a car |
