Maybe Op is trying to confirm identity of someone they think they might know on here. Otherwise, I have no idea!!

That's pretty much what I think. I can't believe people actually answered it.
But there again don't believe everything you believe on the Internet

We drive a 10-year-old Alfa Romeo Giulietta, in "Lunar Perle". Bought it new with part-exchange. They've stopped making them. Our hearts are heavy.

Some sort of new Astra GS, new this year. Through motability for disabled DC.

My first car was a Peugeot 208. Hands down a fantastic car and probably one of the most reliable I’ve ever driven, took a battering for the year I had it and I was sad to sell it on for just under £1k to a new driver who recently passed their test. I really loved that car when I first got my license just after the last lock down. Older model cars are the best and most reliable IMO. I still feel a bit better when I drive past one now 😂

A 73 plate picanto GT
However it's getting quite old now I'm thinking about trading it in for a newer model with less milage 😏

What’s the point of this thread?

A 2022 BMW M340i, bought mostly outright with a small finance on (good px)
A 2024 Audi RS5, leased.

Luckily they came with working indicators.

Bumblebee907 · 26/05/2024 19:12

OP drop and go, what a sad bastard 🤣

Bumblebee907 · 26/05/2024 19:11

Why tho.

Some people want to brag. Boring as fuck.

UngratefulOldCabbage · 26/05/2024 19:08

A brand new car is literally only brand new for a short period after you drive it off the forecourt. Then it's just a newer car. My car is 13 years old but it does me well. But then I'm not impressed with displays of wealth or keeping up with the Joneses so this thread probably isn't for me!

Getonwitit · 26/05/2024 18:45

😂Oh wow, i can't believe you drive a brand new merc, you must be so special, a superstar that everyone looks up to. Does it make you feel so important, superior and richer than others? But i have to say i would be more impressed if you didn't have to buy it on tick. Am i jealous ? No. we have two vehicles, both ancient and paid for. If i felt the need i could pay cash for a merc B200 and not worry about it but i refuse to loose so much money in depreciation and taxes and i really wouldn't want to put feed in it or carry dead pheasants, rabbits etc in it and it is a bit low down for my DH but you enjoy showing it off and paying the finance every month.

LondonQueen · 26/05/2024 17:26

I have two!
My daily (mum) car is a Range Rover Sport, about 3 years old now, I bought it from savings after my previous car was written off.
My weekend/fun car is a Mazda MX-5, it's fantastic and much more fun than the Range Rover. If I didn't have the DC to consider I'd use it every day!

Coastalcreeksider · 26/05/2024 16:07

Kia Picanto, 68 plate, bought new, outright. Currently thinking about changing it for another new car but not sure could afford hybrid or electric and to go for different make.

Would also buy outright, not on finance.

Which car do you mean ? My fun car ? My commuting car ? Or the dog’s car ?

Not just me then. I have work car, fun summer car and dog/family/sensible but yet pokey car.

BiddyPop · 26/05/2024 16:00

I bought it in roughly 2017/18, so it was 2nd hand and it's still going very well so no need to rush changing it!

BiddyPop · 26/05/2024 15:59

I used to drive a 2013 Audi A3 estate, which I had purchased using savings. DD drives it now, having passed her test at the start of the year. (TBF, she has it at home, and I am in another city for work where public transport works very well so I don't need it).

franceslucia · 26/05/2024 14:20

What did it cost? Is it being financed? Did you buy one brand new or is it used?

I'll start: I drive a brand new Mercedes-Benz B200.

It’s my sister Violet - you know, the one with the Mercedes, swimming pool and room for a pony

JaneIves · 26/05/2024 15:58

A Bugatti Veyron.
I paid for it in cash.

Of course I'm joking, I drive a 5 year old Golf. Bought from new on HP. Paid it off last year.

I have so many vehicles I can’t be arsed to tax them all.

I've got a 7 year old Jaguar XF which I got for the bargain price of £15k last year with less than 10,000 miles on the clock. It's lovely and looks far more expensive than it was, which is a win in my opinion!

That is a bloody bargain, well done!

Jeezitneverends · 26/05/2024 15:51

I go between my Audi A1 and dh’s VW Golf, both owned outright

(I have a personal plate on mine, purely to annoy the MN frothers 🤣)

GrumpyOldCrone · 26/05/2024 15:49

I drive a red automatic Audi. No idea what model. It’s not my car, it’s the one I hire from the local hire company when I need to drive to the other end of the country occasionally. I think it’s about £200 per week.
