  1. That's a pretty out-dated view on it TBH. Over 80% of new cars are leased. The majority on PCP deals, where you can hand the keys back at any time, usually with no fee at all. But more lease for three years and then get into another brand new car with little or no extra deposit to pay. A new car every few years, manufacturer warranty and dealer facilities mean a lot more to most motorists than worrying the old banger they've just bought is going to last the winter. Cars are built to cater for these lease periods (same thing happens in the fleet market) so the wise money is often on chopping in and replacing rather than running the gauntlet of driving around in a car that's likely to fail. The saying goes "they don't make 'em like they used to", but there's a reason for that: they don't buy or sell 'em like they used to either.
  2. The mkiv Supra is a modern classic. Prices are only going to go one way.
  3. Hi all, We've had a few emails looking for Supras. Can anyone help? and Post here or get in touch!
  4. It's not racist to deplore laziness!
  5. I thought you wanted to move there!
  6. Using a z in place of an s is British, not the other way around.
  7. SRD should know too from JohnnyG's car.

    Denso is a supplier to loads of major manufacturers. They're good.
  9. It's an every-number-but-eight-off clock! Clever how the eight is in the right place though. Intentional?
  10. Now you can rock out with your clock out.
  11. IMHO we should be encouraging people to make their cars better, and discouraging them from ruining the way this fantastic car drives.
  12. I refer the honourable gentleman to the below:
  13. I don't have one, no. Wouldn't touch one with someone else's bargepole. Focus ST wagon or ideally Octavia vRS for you.
  14. It IS a big dog. Horrible torque steer. You won't believe how bad it is. It's almost funny. The engine was meant for the Mazda6 with four driven wheels, not the 3, with just the fronts

    Car Insurance

    Give Mustard.co.uk a try. It's a new venture they're doing here and should blow everyone else out of the water

    Car Insurance

    Renewal quotes are nearly always hiked up to try and convince you to pay more. Shop around. It's the only way to get a good deal.
  17. What have we told you about bumping all your new business threads daily?!
