I can't get a car I would like for just £24K. The cars I buy 2nd hand for £5K would have cost north of £40K when they were new. Sure I could get some shitty half litre shoebox on wheels for £24K that needs three weeks' written notice for acceleration to 60mph but I'd absolutely hate it. Plus when the engine goes boom replacing the whole car is a lot easier to stomach when it only cost 5K as opposed to 40K.
Weeks written notice :-). They are all over the show.
I'm just some random who knows nothing about cars. What kind of cars are you buying? Legitimately curious!
