Thats absolutely fine by me, I dont mind answering the questions I know! But when it comes to interest rates on bank accounts then I'm a bit out of the loop

There are reasons for it.


Really?

Finance normally means you pay more in the long run.
Why use finance and pay more if you can afford the pay it off in one and pay less?


I've currently got enough cash to pay off all my loans/credit cards minus the mortgage, but it's useful to have accessible cash. Particularly for a business when accessible cash-flow can be the lifeblood of the company.

Good effort on the GTR, they've got an aura about them in the flesh I think (probably the sheer size of them )

I'd like a go in one

Jesus christ only on CS can a post about a guy's Dad buying a GTR turn into him being asked the interest rates on the finance. It doesn't fucking matter?

Nice car. Can we have some good pictures please.

I'm jealous also. I think that's what most people are trying to say.

He'll be picking it up on monday so I'll throw a few pictures of it then! I've always dreamed of owning my own GTR. Like Kyle said there's just something about them. Hopefully one day!

I can easily say a gtr is a dream car for me. Wouldn't be a Ferrari or anything similar. That would be more a nightmare

£40000 over 5 years is £666 a month, thats before you take into account insurance and servicing..

Not being cheeky but i doubt you could afford to devote that much of your cash per month to it, not going off your previous posts.

And before you say you have the money to pay it, having the cash and affording it are very different things

Why do you still live with your mum if you earn enough to live the life of a playboy? Seems weird.

Nic your probably looking at £1k a month without fuel.. I know you live at home but surely you have some other bills to pay?

What do you do? Stock man at a tyre place or something?

You have mentioned countless times on here that you dont earn a "lot" of money. Which is fine.

Maybe it was a lie, maybe its true. I dont care.

I couldnt afford one, i know that much, not on finance anyway.

Even if it was a case of if anyone could afford £766 a month on a finance payment

Why the fuck would you want too

I know someone who pays £550 and I think that's ridiculous. I think my absolute max I'd be happy to pay a month is £400, but even that I don't think I could do as it's a big monthly commitment on top of everything else. Depends if my situation ever changes I guess.
