Even so, that's gotta come out ahead of the 56 drive away i paid last year... for a demo. Oh well, as Taka said a year of past enjoyment can't be bought.

Taka, I thought the same thing - hmm, maybe a white one.

And then answered it the same way.

Mind you, assuming I can get $30K odd for mine, that's $20K for a brand new car.

Don't know if I cbf changing all the mods over though...

Come to the Sydney run on the 18th Mike.

We can all have a whinge about it together and make ourselves feel better...or not.

I got one question and one point of view.

Question: Who the hell is Howard and why's he being eaten???

POV: The car is 12 months old when they sell it to you.....are they plated 06?? If so then don't worry as Missy said they get their $$ from the suckers in the end.....I bought a demo 2 and if you want to be really sad after three years the balloon is $20K...that's excellent cause then it's a cheap car for me to buy!

Never invest in cars of today....it's the cars of yesteryear that make you money....just drive it and enjoy it you can't take it with you when you're gone!!

$48,990. My gosh. It really DOES make you want to cry. I have never owned an asset that has depreciated this fast before. It's so much worse that Mazda keep clearing out all their stock at ridiculously low prices.

Oh well...no point whinging. I'll just have to go out and earn more money to make up for it.

Howard was probably the fish of the day. Though why he's being eaten so early in the morning is anyone's guess.... must have been a kipper.
