If you really can do without the car, it gets much more predictable. Car expenses can be kind of random. Unforeseen repairs, speeding tickets etc.
As well as your monthly budget, consider setup costs. You'll need furniture, appliances (fridge, washing machine), kitchen utensils, sheets, things like that.
If you get this handled in advance, you can keep your initial spend down to a minimum. Borrow unused stuff on extended loan. When Xmas time rolls around, let your family know what gifts are going to be most useful for when you move out.
