Think of the insurance :eek::eek: Couldn't justify the cost even if, I would rather buy a field

Fair enough.

For me...it's cars. I have a big passion for them.



But I completely understand that you may decide to spend your money on something that pleases you.

I have a feeling David. may drive something like this:

bubbs remember that there is help if you do want to stop smoking.

Go and see your GP or pharmacist.

Think of all that money.

Or read Allen Carr's book

This is something I don't quite agree with.

If someone has worked hard for their cash all life and they have a big passion for cars, then why not spend £50k, £100k, £200k etc on a great car that they love/enjoy?

Why not 'show off'?



Let me use an example of how someone could quite easily afford a £100k car.

Millions of people smoke in the UK.

Let's take someone who smokes 20 cigarettes per day. They started at the age of 18 and now they're 58; a total of 40 years. Some periods they smoked 10/day and other periods 30/day; but their average is about 20/day. (I know of people who have smoked for more years and 30+ cigs/day.

If you use this calculator: http://www.canstopsmoking.com/tools/cost-calculator

You can see that their smoking has cost them £100k+ over those 40 years.

Same can be said for alcohol, nights out etc.

Now if I choose not to smoke and 'save' £100k over those years, is there a particular reason why I shouldn't buy a car that I have always wanted?



I could have invested that money from a younger age and turn it into £200k+, buy a better car, save half etc.

Just sayin'....

:cool:

I am not saying don't show off :cool: I am saying a car costing £200,000 - £1,000.000 is to show off. Are they seriously that much better in everyday life than a £20,000 car as in 10x 50x. What do they do
I know the stats say it can do 0-60 in x and a top speed of y but when are these people going to do 200mph etc.
