I am a weak old thing..another Pug in the shed...

Couldnt resist this one...a pristine 94 model 405 Peugeot for only
$5k. Has 64k on the clock, full service history, drives & looks like new. Too much for a 15 year old car ? Maybe. The identical one
in the shed has 210 k on it & runs like a clock...14k to a litre. Not
too shabby for a 2L Auto. This one will do another 250 k easy &
that works out at about 2 cents a kilometre..capital cost. A new
Commodore at $30k doing 80k over the next 3 years with a
residual of 50% will cost 20 cents a kilometre..capital cost. No
prize for guessing what I'll be driving. Put another way.......
my Pug doing 250k @14k/l uses 18000L of fuel at $1.3..totals
$23500 plus $5k capital Exp..Grand total.....$28500.
3 Commodores doing 80k each over the same period will use
25000 Litres of fuel @ $1.3 equals $32500. Given the commos
are $30k ea with a 50% residual in 3 years...total capital ex is
$45k. Added to fuel gives a grand total of...$77500...Mmmm
I feel stronger already.....:)))......oldbaz
