    2k for your ute was good buying. Can't comment on someone paying big money on a collector car. If you've got it to spend then it's a personal thing I guess. It's a risky thing if you were thinking of it as an investment for retirement though. Cars are the first to fall and fall the furthest when times turn tough.
    It's funny though, I am needing to replace our Prado. 210000 km on it in 5 years from new. It will cost close to the same as old mate spent on that HX Sandman to replace. But in 5 years it will lose more than half its value. My WB is going up in value sitting in the shed, unregistered. Strange world we live in.

    Each to their own I guess. I do a bit of both.

    But when you get a tax break you would be crazy not to buy new

    I get a great tax break but I'd still have to come up with the lease payments to justify it.... My business isn't close to big enough to be able to afford a new car and it's associated payments and costs.
    The HZ ute will have to do....

    Horses for courses. You lose a lot of money on second hand cars too.
