    It's Paid For . . .

    . . . at long bloody last I made the final payment on the D5 last Monday.

    It's the last time I EVER do that! 5 years is more like a sentence than a repayment plan. From now on it gets mended until it falls apart and can't be mended any more.

    Any suggestions what I should spend the money on each month?

    No! Wait, I've got it . . .

    Diesel! Friggin' gummint!

    I've had pretty good experiences with finance....usually with interest rates lower than the rate of inflation

    None of the above . . .

    The DIM's dead, the gearbox is dying, it chomps its way thru a set of tyres a year - (22 and counting!) it's impossible for the wife to park and Christ only knows how much next years road tax is going to be.

    Why do I not want to get rid of it?
