Hello folks, I know you lot are by in large very sensible and great for giving out solid advice.
But I’m interested to know if anyone here goes with something a little counter intuitive and owns a ‘stupid’, stupid in the sense that it’s not an econbox, it’s not been purchased purely out of necessity but more so out of lust or whatever you want to call it.
I know one guy with a Ferrari and he has Ferrari money as you’d expect, self made man, gent and he doesn’t bat an eye at €8k of a service bill.
But even on a lesser scale than that, anyone got something with high tax, running costs, the lot or just a nice weekender that stays wrapped up in the shed?
None of my friends own anything ludicrous.
Maybe a BMW the Credit Union owns half or the likes but nothing performance derived.
How do you justify it - not to your significant other but to yourself?
I love cars and I currently pay close to €900 in tax each year towards my two.
The UK seems a lot more car enthusiast friendly, but I’m interested in our prohibitively expensive VRT’d nation.
So does anyone here own a stupid car, how do you budget for it and how do you justify the costs?
