you've got a perfectly good car, why borrow to get a newer one? sounds crazy to me.. i paid cash money for mine, it was 18 months old, 1500 miles on it and i paid just over 20k... it's got 23k on it now, sailed through it's MOT last week.

If you had the cash fine, but don't borrow for it, you'll only be dissappointed as it won't be THAT much better than your current motor (unless your's is a dog??).

that's my 2p

[QUOTE=Paul_P1,Mar 5 2006, 12:48 PM] That's just tripe, the same could apply to your scenario above with the loan.

Ah well, you have to take into account everyone's situation is different. One method is good for someone....etc etc. If people like me didn't buy new cars for 26K, 2nd hand bargains wouldn't be available for guys like you!
