Tasty looking motor. But I'd rather one of these, and a nice holiday for the equivalent money...Originally posted by DimPrawn View PostNow, this is what I'd buy for sensible money.

What and do without the holiday and the car?Originally posted by sasguru View PostWhy not put the money towards that large house you so desperately desire?
Funny thing is prior to contracting, I didn't have a holiday away for around 7 years, as I couldn't afford it.
But.....things change...and he will probably think I'm boasting, again, but I'm currently enjoying a 2 month one
Life's just so unfair

I practice bangeromics now for several reasons:
1. Divorce parted me with > 1/2 the money
2. Working on plan b fulltime, have little income
3. No more worries about where you leave the car, or it getting a ding or scratched
When plan b makes me richer than sasguru, I will buy something semi decent.
