do you have access to everyone's bank account details then?!  as usual a totally unsubstantiated and sweeping statement with no basis whatsoever.

i work at a motor dealership and most new cars are bought with at least some level of finance. it's not often people come in with the cash. it's not exactly unsubstantiated.

Whatever degree he did or didn't get it has failed him.

it's a recession, in case you haven't noticed. i'm still doing quite well at the moment. i will get an actuarial job as soon as the next cohorts are taken on.

at the end of the day - i'm not the one going to be dealing with soul crushing depreciation, or be paying for my car constantly over x months when the honeymoon period has expired.

That soul crushing depreciation wont affect us all, I dont have my car yet and already its worth nearly £2000 more than when I bought it due to VW's price increase on the car and the extras, then there's the VAT increase in Jan.

Paying for something over x months is very normal, I assume you don't have a mortgage else you would already know this.

I think you will find it's the actuarial job that is soul crushing.
BTW I've never had any form of loan in my life and give my cars away after a few years, so depreciation is always 100% for me.

is it a VW dealership?  i'm guessing no.  therefore your remark about mk5 and mk6 owners is unsubstantiated as you don't work at a VW dealership.  i'm guessing you work for peugeot?!  :grin:

this could go round in circles for days with monkeys like vwkev and matchboy, unfortunately i have neither the will or the time.

hairy egbert - touche. it's not entirely soul crushing though, it has its good points depending what field you are in.

You neither have the will nor the time, yet you just posted again to tell us that.  :grin: You really are Clueless.

Shrocco nobody seems to like you on this forum or am i wrong? I wonder why that would be? Why do you insist on pi33ing people off? The thread's subject is options to opt for, do you have a non offensive/relevant/useful input on this subject? If so I'd appreciate it greatly. Cheers DW
