      Cheers for this, I been tryin to find out about "flip your way to financial freedom pdf" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Ferapt Freedom Fanboy - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my friend got great success with it.

    People on the comment section be like "Use always cash, if you can't afford it you shouldn't be financing it", man do you really know how the real world looks like? Financing doesn't mean that you don't have the cash, it just means that you pay it monthly as if you have saved it just with a little intrest on it, so chill out. Instead of using all that money at once for a car, intelligent people use the rest as an investment.

      Osman Celik FINALLY someone I agree with here. thats exactly what I'm doing. I cant bring myself to pay $20 000 on a car when a large portion I invest and just pay installments. also after 3 years of ownership I can choose to upgrade to w newer model or downgrade to a car that costs next to nothing too own.

      Well said, recently bought a house so all my savings went on the deposit, but my car at the time died on me and repair bill was almost the same value of the car so i got rid of it. With nothing saved due to it all going on my house deposit i'll finance a car, spreading the cost over a few years.

    For a prestige badge this shocked me at first. But then it kind of makes sense when you imagine how many different bills people have going out these days.
    Cars like Audi/BMW/Merc are selling more today due to finance options available to people.

    Finance ? You get to drive a nice care that makes you feel special and happy, it’s warranted for a few years ( peace of mind) it’s new so very rare do they break down, and the alternative to finance? You splash out a few thousand for a used car, spend on expensive parts that may need replacing, if the gearbox or engine pack up, all the money invested in that used car will be wiped out. ☺️always financed mine, and @ roughly £2400 per year I can travel in reasonable style and with peace of mind, knowing that it’s a newish vehicle with warranty.

      Back in 2009 by BF bought outright, with his own hard earned money, a 1 year old Astra (ex demo) that had 3000 miles on the clock. In that time, he only had one 'big repair' done to it and that was the alternator packed up when it was 7 years old. Everything else was regular routine expenses, like MOTs, servicing etc that all get done around the same time. The car is now 12 years old with 100K+ miles on the clock and runs like clockwork. Never a problem with the brakes, clutch, gearbox etc. Don't rubbish all cars because they are 3+ years old. You seem to think they will all suddenly break down and require major repairs thereafter. You look after your car, the car will look after you. For my BF, it's been a brilliant investment. We're not the sort of people to PCP a car every few years to impress the neighbours. We want a car that we OWN and we can do whatever we want with it. We can drive it without the worry of having to return it in mint condition or with certain miles on the clock back to the dealership. Also it's peace of mind that if we end up losing our jobs for example, we don't have to worry about how we would keep up with our car repayments. Our car is OURS.

    What's with all these "cash only - live within your means" comments. Don't people know how the world works? Also using credit and finance sensibly is sometimes wiser than not using it at all. What do you guys think a mortgage is? You don't save first and then buy a house. Also - let people live their life how they want to. If they want to get a brand new car then let them. I've seen people get an older car and spend all the money they're supposedly saving in the garage fixing things every other month.

    when buying always go for earliest model of the car and ideally 2-3 years old (try not to buy a newish end of life or ready for new generation model) also go with the most popular option model trim as well as ones with loaded options don't buy a basic spec car because they are less desirable.
    Go to the bank get a loan and buy it out right and pay low interest, then change the car every 2-3 years.
    I have been doing this way for awhile and it works out pretty well whenever i come to sell it never depreciate more then 25%

      That's right, so the only thing you're funding is the depreciation on the car. Rather than paying thousands upon thousands of your hard earned savings and then losing even more money due to depreciation. If you look to change your car every 3-4 years, it's ideal. If you're going to run it until its death, you don't really care about the re-sale value

    Guy, think about it in this manner. Suppose a car costs 20,000$ and you have the cash in hand. What if you pay a downpayment of 25% and rest as monthly installments. Here the thing is you still have the 75% of cash with you and if handled wisely you can pay the installments with ease. That's known as oppurtunity cost.

    my family often purchase cars pm finance because they dont want to save up 50k and limit what else they can do with there money for a year. They'd rather just put 10k down and pay monthly because it then allows them to spend much more money on thinks like trips and wont empty there bank account. however they have brought cars cash as well which they think is good if you have a lot of money prepared and enough left over to do things
