Anything that can a bit of joy back into the world is worth grabbing with both hands ??
So true Winston. I was beginning to think that I was the only person on this forum who wasn’t obsessed by cheap running costs as the primary consideration when it comes to choosing a car.
Reminds me of one of my Uncles. Like me, he was always in to his cars. The last time he visited (aged 78) he roared up in his Porsche Macan GTS with Porsche sports exhaust and various other options. It sounded absolutely fantastic. He told me that one of his neighbours had asked him what sort of MPG he got out of it and his answer was “I don’t know and I don’t care, because I enjoy every minute of it”. Sadly, he died suddenly not long after I saw him from a combination of a particularly aggressive cancer and Covid. He had, however, lived his life to the full.
If something like a Porsche Macan came into the scheme (pigs might fly, I know) I would snap it up and not care one jot if I only got 23mpg out of it (which, by the way, was what he was getting when his daughter looked it up on the cars computer after he died) ?
