I was just wondering how many people on here use loans/finance as a way of paying for their cars and running/modifying them...

nope, don't believe in loans/finance.
if i can't afford to buy something outright, i can't afford it, so i don't buy it. simple as.

Hummm fuck that!!!

I think if you can manage the re payments and the intrest aint shit loads why not?? rates these days are fuckall!!

nrock loans 5k over 3yrs @5.7% £151.11 you get charged £440 intrest!

I owe about 4k thats for the car and mainly for the xe i am sticking in!

Corsa was financed, paid it off as soon as I had the ££.
The Astra, put down £4.5k, had to finance £2.5 but should be paid off by the end of the year!

Never ever take a loan or anything to mod it tho, if I have the ££ I buy the bits, if I dont have the ££, no bits.
