I always buy my cars outright. Never had finance for a car.
I bought the AU ghia in 2000 as a demo with 3,000kms saved some money to look at buying a BA xr8 in 2002 but the trade in on my ghia was a insult for a car with 32,000kms and just 3 years old. So I used the money to buy my wife a new Mazda sp20 astina which was a cheaper deal than the Ford XR8 deal even though she was happy with her old 929 mazda.Have had my hobby car the Buick since 1984 and I would hate to think of how much money I've sunk into that over the years. buickman |

The XR6 is bought under a CHP agreement as it is for part business use. Ms RATT's car is her company car.

Working for Ford, I've got a lease car (currently a TS Territory RWD), which is more like hiring one than leasing (it gets replaced every 7 months, woohoo), and of course I've got a long term project in the shed that's all mine, the avatar spells it out.

I own both my Fords and their modifications, but the Eunos is on a 7 year loan with very small repayments needed per month. I plan to pay it off within a couple of years to save on interest.

I still have a couple of years of repayments on mine.
Always tempting to upgrade but i wanna actually own a car. That hasn't happened since i sold my XF in 2000. Im impressed with all the people that own their cars ot there. Good Effort. |
