[QUOTE="DeeGee, post: 3381634, member: 6695"] Everyone will have different views on car buying. As I have said previously we have done contract hire now for about twelve years and it works okay for us, say mid range Astra or Golf roughly £250/month for a new car and no worries, just hand it back at two year old. However if I wanted a second car as a runabout for my own use locally I would probably buy an economical old car with a year's MOT and no recommendations, for say £500 cash, run it for year and then see whether it was worth another MOT in 12 months. Definitely has to be the cheapest motoring by far, and I really don't give a toss about been 'seen' in a brand new or flash car. However if you need a newer more reliable car for everything including the wife and children etc.then IMO contract hire gives safety and peace of mind; for not much difference in cost between buying a three year old car outright and renewing it every two or three years.
