    I'm about to buy a new car. The finance rate is 0% APR. I have and continue to save for my pension. I have savings.

    Just because YOU see no value in a new car doesn't mean everyone should. Do you buy second hand clothes? I hope so, why "waste" money on something new. Better put some more money in the pension so when you retire you can, er, do what exactly?

    Well said, your a long time dead.

    I was offered PCP and I don;t work lol.

    What's your point?

    I don't work but I have an income... that's what matters.

    Absolutely. I don't work either, being retired. Ironically, I have a lot more spare cash now than I ever did when I was working.
    I used to think that good grammar is important, but now I know that good wine is importanter.

    I forgot to update this, yes I got approved. I will never know how, although I am not sure they even carried out a credit check and it hasn’t showed up on any of my reports.
