cars paid off, insurance pay off, MOT and Service I pay as and when, but save about 2/3 months in advanced for them.

I save all money I can and use that for insurance etc when its due!

Don't budget for it, buy petrol every fortnight (Don't go far!) and it gets serviced every 6 months/4k - £100-400.

Car is owned outright, insurance and tax paid for annually as well.

Just fuel, servicing/maintenance/ mods and cleaning products.

Fuel - £200-300 (business usage as well)
Mods - sometimes when i feel the need to+ other months nada

£5 a month on fuel, GF sorts the rest of it out

Nah, we dont really budget, insurance of £390 is paid annually (no point paying monthly really is there???), tax is cheaper if you pay for it 12 months and MOT costs £35 a year.

Touchwood the only 'repairs' done to it are - sump gasket + oil change - £55 and then ive replaced lightbulbs, and the usual topping up your fluids
