Loan Calculators ooooh... I looove this link!!! There are some really good calculators here. In particular check out the Extra Repayments Calculator and the Lump Sum Repayment Calculator.

Then play with the calculator to see the wonders of what you can really afford with your loan, whether you bank with this lender or not!
