Regretting new car purchase

shiraz99

Sorry guys but this is a wind up. There's no way a 2007 Yaris is going to cost £4000 and also they don't do a 1.6 litre diesel engine. When are the schools going back?

I also work from home, so won't even be using it on a day to day basis and will have to take it for a run round the block every night. 

Eh?? It's not a dog that has to go walkies every night.

If I don't take it out at least once a day for an 8 mile round the block it will break down, especially with it being diesel and the colder weather coming. A man from the AA advised me of that the last time I owned a similar car.

Well that's exactly what I bought yesterday, and what is currently parked on a road 2 streets away.

Good thing is in the long run having a diesel car will be cheaper than petrol, as I won't need to fill it up as much if I'm not using it to go on motorways, which is what diesels were originally designed for. I suppose I could get a job which doesn't require WFH and would involve travelling to another city, therefore rendering my diesel more useful.

The guy is trolling, see his other threads plus this one using an alter ego he posted a few years back

Those AA men are good judges of character.

As already stated above, I'm having similar issues to what I had before. I thought moving to a new area I would have more parking space, clearly I was wrong. Also this has caused me a great deal of stress, so I would appreciate some support instead of everyone trying to !!!!!! me off with snotty comments and accusing me of trolling. Moving house and buying a car are the 2 most stressful events in life, both of which I've now gone through in the last month.

So buy a Toyota and you can never go on a two week holiday abroad?
