Hopefully once you have 1 years ncb it should be more affordable, maybe worth getting some quotes putting in one years ncb, see if it looks better for you.
Its not too far off to July, and the time will go quicker than you think. A lot of people are having to wait a couple of months for theirs to be built, so if it looks good for you once July comes round maybe think about ordering yours sometime in May.
