    I do not know much about cars, but, I do prefer getting a new one, and maximize it. We had our toyota for a good 9 years before we decided to upgrade it. We did not want to start spending money maintainining it I suppose, sell it while she's still in good condition.

    I have access to end of lease cars as i work for an organization that has fleet management as part of it's core business.

    I myself picked up a decent car a couple of years ago for less than 1/3 of it's original price (was 5years old at the time) haven't had any issues with it.

    PM me if your interested and i'll link you up.

    I go to pickles auction to get 2/4 year old car which is low km and almost new for less than half of new car price.

    No loans just cash.

    Thanks guys. We have a deadline to give the other car back, but rumours suggest it might not happen... holding out to see
