Would you buy your current car again?

-westy- · 20 Apr 2006 at 14:47

Hey,

Just had a think about this. In a few years time, were you given the chance to buy your current car again (not the same one, a different one) - Would you? - And if so, why?

I'll relate this to my 205XS - Yes, i would. fantastic fun for £500.

Go

Yes, no doubts whatsoever.

NickXX · 20 Apr 2006 at 14:51

Yes - but probably in a different guise. I.e. M3. Until I can afford it, would definately be happy with another 330d.

Toryglen-boy · 20 Apr 2006 at 14:52

nahh ...

i think next time i would save up that little bit more ... no matter what you have, you soon get bored of it

Trojan · 20 Apr 2006 at 14:57

Nope, not with the amount of things that have gone wrong with it :mad:

Lashout_UK · 20 Apr 2006 at 14:58

Difficult. I've spent more than what I could have purchased a fully road-going in great nick version for.....

But then again, my car is unique and there's only one on the planet. And I like it.

So yea, I probably would

Confused · 20 Apr 2006 at 15:01

IF I could find another example that is as good as this one, then yes.

If it wasn't in as good condition, then no, I wouldn't buy it, as I currently know what I need in a good Prelude, and I wouldn't want one that isn't as good.

[TW]Fox · 20 Apr 2006 at 15:03

I really dont know.

The obvious answer would have course be yes. It's a fantastic car, does everything I want it to do well, looks great, is great to drive, economical and reliable. It's brilliant.

But in 5 years time? After several years of BMW ownership? I'm not sure if I'd want to go back to a Mk2 Mondeo which, even if I bought one of the last examples, would be at least 11 years old.

William · 20 Apr 2006 at 15:05

Yup. MK1 free mondeo 4tw.

Enfield · 20 Apr 2006 at 15:07

Easy answer to this question - no.

Oakesy2001uk · 20 Apr 2006 at 15:13

yep if I was 18 again every time, now Im 20 no way.... need power!

Mic · 20 Apr 2006 at 15:17

Im already planning on getting another one

eidolon · 20 Apr 2006 at 15:17

Yep, certainly would. It's been bulletproof over the last 3 years.

Ukadder · 20 Apr 2006 at 15:18

Yes I would but like NickXX probibly in a diffrent guise. I do loe my 328 but can't help but like the 330 slightly more and then obviously the M3. But for the price I payed getting a 330 was out the question so I'm happy.

Sirrel Squirrel · 20 Apr 2006 at 15:18

Nope, unless someone put a 2l turbo in it or something (escort btw)

Adz · 20 Apr 2006 at 15:19

I've never owned or even driven a car that didn't at least have some redeeming features; therefore yes I would

.

agw_01 · 20 Apr 2006 at 15:39

No.

I'd buy the turbo version instead

see that over there Andy? *points*

Its the light at the end of the tunnel

EddScott · 20 Apr 2006 at 15:43

Yes, in the same colour but probably should have bitten the bullet on insurance and bought an STI TYPE RA (Impreza btw)

Doubt I'd ever use it but I want the roof vent and DCCD.

F355 · 20 Apr 2006 at 15:55

Yes, although I would have waited longer for one in better condition. It was only the second car I have ever bought and I have learned a lot since then.

Saying that if I had more money to spend no way would I buy another.
