I'm in the wrong job....
« on: 16 May 2013, 21:42:59 »

Needed to get a few gifts for some members of staff that helped my team recently, so took one of the testing girls with me to Tesco as she would know what girls want  ::)

Being a women and a bit lazy  :-X - She offered to drive (its actually quicker to walk, but hey-ho!)

She drives a 2007 BMW Z4, not the usual choice for a gir I thought, manual too, not auto! I commented on the car, but she said, Ohh I'm getting rid soon, I'll be getting a Porsche Cayman S  :o :o :o :o

She's only 24  :o :o :o

I decided not to mention I drive a 13 year old 160k family barge  :-[

You can have a nice sporty car at any time in your life.

Its just the power to weight ratio seems to diminish and you need a block and tackle to get out after a journey of more than ten minutes. :D

Yep get the fast sports cars out your system when you're young - once you get married & have kids a sports car is a PITA - had to get rid of a nice TR6 as it took longer to load up 2 kids and all their gear than drive anywhere!  Flogged it and bought a 3 lit Ghia Granada.

Once the kids get older you can dip your toes again in the faster motors - I went down the track of running (as fun cars) a Ferrari Dino ('72) and a TR4A ('67) before I got divorced - still got the TR though ;)

Remember a red sports car adds an inch to your willie size ;D ;D

You could get a new Cayenne on lease for £700 per month plus initial deposit. She may get car allowance.

It's a big problem. Lots of peaople assume that if you drive an expensive car that you're loaded. Really not so, it's all about priorities. I Once knew a guy who had a Bentley and his Mrs a big 4x4. They went bust, did a runner leaving huge debts. I never borrow (borrow/leasepurchase /whatever) money to buy car, don't have the cash then I don't get the car, easy  :y

It's just a car remember.
