MONEY

Me outside my place out in the sticks. I'm not saying where it is, but if you know, keep away or you'll end up buried with the others.

I don't like the look of those orange seats meself; they look cheap. I'd have those changed to all black.

But who gets to decide what's 'tasteful'? For me, a living room without books would be tasteless, however richly furnished, or however many shiny new gadgets it contained. It would be like a hotel room. A room needs to display some of the character of the person/people who live in it to be 'tasteful'. We probably take the 'shabby chic' look to extremes. A bit of dusting probably wouldn't go amiss.

bmw lol
u gave me one for free i'de never drive it..911 sounds ok..problem is the fekin running costs.
camaro costs the same as a focus to service..i love the 6.2l yank pushrod motors..nothing on earth sounds like them..plus as i said they actually appreciate in value..something very important when parting with 40k.


imho the most beautiful car ever created..ffs in black they look like the batmobile








watch this space..within 12 months i'll own one all paid in cash ofc..

Many moons ago I was earning obscene amounts of money but I can honestly say that it never brought me any happiness at all.

I now have a modest detached bungalow on a private estate, paid for in full, with 2 cars both over 17 years old. Both of these cars are paid for, very reliable and sail through their MOTs every year and that is good enough for me. I am a pensioner now and the missus works part time and we pay all our bills ech month with a little left over but not much. I don't have any surplus money to splosh out on hifi, but having said that I am very happy with my system as it is.

Modern cars are the equivalent of 'white goods'. You use them until they wear out and then bin them. In twenty years they will be unusable as no parts will be available. With maybe rare exceptions, they will never become 'classics'.

worthless money pit junk german pos..over engineered and will cost u a fortune in repairs and be worth about 50 quid once 8 years old

AVOID THESE POS LUXERY GERMAN CARS LIKE THE PLAGUE


my mate here bought a 8 year old 100k audi A8 ..was 100 grand new..he paid 15k for it lol..some twat lost 85k over 8 years...he then spent about 10 grand trying to keep the pos on the road..in the end the gearbox blew up...he sold it for 1200 quid.

so in 9 years the utter pos went from a 100 grand car to a worthless pile of junk..

YOU CANT OWN a over engineered german car outside of warranty...

only german car worth owning is the 911 porsche..u need to be rich to keep it serviced..only an utter fool buys these audi a8's and such..

100 grand car new lol..the minute u drive it off the forecourt you'll be waving goodbye to 30k plus..

mercs lol..i have seen new mercs here rust away in front of my eyes..50k new cars basically worth scrap value in 6 years flat..me mate bought a new vito  costing 55k..7 years later he scrapped it from mases of rust
bmw's use lots of plastic on their motors..100k miles the motor will be toast..

u buy a classic yank car the car will increase in value

Old Fords like the Mk 1 and 2 Escort and the Cortinas are worth proper money now. Never saw that coming. I mean the XRs and the RSI's fair enough. But the standard models?

rolls royce phantom uses a bmw engine...check you tube with the issues due to plastic parts..300k car that falls to bits in 8 years...german engineering my ass..worthless shite.

i check the resale before i buy any car...kia and hyundai hold a lot of value due to long warrantys.

NEVER EVER BUY A CAR WITH A CAMBELT...vw passat once 4 years old with cost u 1500 quid here to replace it.
again i always check the car i buy uses a chain

Not far from here is a house occupied by one scruffy-looking bloke. Parked up in his driveway are, amongst others, a Rolls-Royce, a Bentley, a Jaguar and a Mercedes. I've never seen any of them on the road or even seen him cleaning them; they just sit there, depreciating.

In black it does look kinda righteous I admit.

But I'd rather they still looked like this:

one other thing you can import a supercharger from the states for about 10 grand..5 grand to fit it..up to 700 bhp then..no car on earth sounds as good as a supercharged yank v8
