Originally posted by mudskipper View PostWhen I started driving, cars had a little knob you could pull out and in,coaxing and teasing until it revved to your satisfaction. If you pulled it too hard, it would flood, and you had to wait for it to recover before you could start again. It was called the choke.

I think you could easily hang a handbag on me. But apparently many men in their 40s would struggle.Originally posted by mudskipper View PostI've yet to find a bloke I could hang my handbag on.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014Comment

Yes anyone that tells me I don't pay tax is getting punched in the face. The Vat I paid on this car is more than most plebs earn in a year...Originally posted by sasguru View PostYou're still the indebted masses though.
You are only seeing depreciation. What about the fact that every time I drive to a clients site I get to do so in total comfort and luxury instead of clambering out of an old banger with a sore back?Originally posted by eek View PostThat's an awful lot of instant depreciation there pretending to be a interest free loan....
You live in London and mostly work from home, so I would not expect you to understand or care much about cars. If I drive to a clients site, most of the time its at least a 200 mile round trip. I figure I would like to own a car that is comfortable and luxurious. The next model won't show up till at least 2020, Most other people will have had several cars by then I am just spreading the money differently.Originally posted by sasguru View PostQuite. Just don't get that kind of thinking.Comment
