My hubby's constantly trying to get me to upgrade my car which I absolutely love. I spent ages hunting for this car. All I wanted was a car which reminded me of my old car, a Honda Civic 1988 model which my 2006 Peugeot 206 definitely meets. It's a great car, has barely cost me a cent and I got it for less than half the original price (I bought it three years ago when it was only 2 years old). I'm so happy with it that I think like with my old car that I'll keep it until I run it into the ground.
-I can't justify spending huge amounts of money on a new car, but my husband constantly wants a new car. I got a bit of a win this year by getting him to agree to continue the lease on his car for another year so that we can buy another investment property. Don't know how to convince him again next year. Just can't see the justification in buying a new one. I know he does a lot more k's per year than I do (around 30,000), but if the car's running well, is there really any need to upgrade? I mean the maintenance costs for his car aren't very high. It's all the money that he spends keeping it clean that costs a fortune!
Wish he was more frugal like me, i can't even convince him to buy second hand clothing. He won't wear anything that doesn't have a tag on it when i bring it home for fear it may be secondhand. So annoying!
