Cars - they represent excellent value for money

[biturbo]

my favourite quote as im a retailer.

people know the price of everything but the value of nothing.

its so true. You price something at 1k the automatically asume its good, price it at £500 they think its half as good.
When you then compare solid mahogany items for 500 and then mdf for same price people think they are the same but some people are taking the mikey.

Oh I don't know... In my car it takes me about 1.5 hours each way to commute and costs me £100 a week in fuel.

On the current bike it takes me 40 minutes to commute and it costs £10 a week in fuel.

£90 X 48 weeks = £4300 pa in fuel savings... I could buy a new car for that

With all the lunatics on the road i like the security of a metal, coccoon protecting me.In a bike i would feel like a sitting target.
I'll take safety over savings - and that's from a mega tightwad!
