P Platers Driving Xr6 Turbos

[bugster70]

mate no offence intended but ebing young I hear that kinda stuff everyday, even when I had my old 86 bluebird, after awhile it just goes in 1 ear and out the other, but for the sakes of keeping this car im guna be careful

That's all I was asking for!

I hear where you're coming from though, I still remember all the seemingly painful and repetitive advice I got when I was that age too. Hard to believe, but trust me, the silly old buggers were right!!

If they are 19 and can afford a T they must be one of the 3 options:

1. Work in IT

2. Inherrentance or rich parents

3. Drug dealers.

I would suspect option 1 for most of our young T drivers

Or a public servant?

Edit: This job pays more than the IT job I used to be in, almost double.

Nupe, IT don't pay that well anymore and if your only 19, how could you be qualified to work in IT ?

That is a very very short Uni Course and not very long in a TAFE course either....

Takes a LOT of cash to buy an XR6T and seriously, I just do not believe it can be done.

If you are earning that sort of money already, perhaps you should be buying a house instead...

depends on what you want... a nice car or a nice house... If your lucky you can have both (most of us arent)...in My younger days I could of blown my money on a nice car and worked hard to pay it off over the loan period... instead at age 17 I decided to go overseas and spend time abroad... I travelled until I had no more money.. I then came back and worked for another year and went overseas again... I did this until I was 26. At 26 I had nothing to show for it but I had a bloody good time too

diffrent strokes for diffrent folks

good on the youngies for going for a nice car. Better then p1ssing your money up against the wall

Its great to see members of all ages being able to afford a T. Should we question how a 19 year old afford a T?

No IMO. Good luck to them I say.

You wouldn't have a work associate who orded a new Purple T today would you.

Yeah, But I'm sure you didn't p1ss 50K up against the travel wall when you went first time either......

We must be talking about $1000 / month repayments on a T aren't we even with Ballon repayment at the end? Plus insurance.. Didn't I just see someone say $4k / year ?

WTF is that dribble? Just because you may not have been in the same position at that age do not automatically assume everyone else is in the same boat.

I would have bought a T at 19 if they were around, as I could have easily afforded it (more so than now!) through busting my ass and working hard. Give the guys a break.

I think Dallas has hit the nail right on the head.

No you are right, we probably shoud be worrying about what "Knee Jerk" reaction the Federal government are going to have when these things are second hand enough that ALL P-platers can afford them.

Bloody High death toll on our roads then I would expect......
