    Using Car Loans and a Plan to Buy the Car of Your Dreams

    Whether you’re a real petrol head or someone with the idea of what their perfect car might be, the majority of motorists dream of owning a particular car at some point in their lifetimes. For many this does eventually become a reality when you decide to treat yourself after years of hard work, but for others it can only happen with the help of car loans or winning the lottery because you just can’t afford the price of that particular model with all of your other outgoings.

    As you grow up with pictures of sports cars on your bedroom wall or pretending that you’re driving something far more luxurious than the family hatchback you drop the kids off in every morning, you tend to get fixated with something bigger and better, but is it always better?

    If you ever speak to people who own those particular models – either in the flesh or over the Internet on the many motoring blogs such as this one or in forums – they tend to tell you about how it’s great in the early days because you finally have the car you’ve always dreamed of, but then as time goes by it starts to have a few problems which cost thousands to repair and then the depreciation makes you sell or trade it in before you lose much more money.

    It’s the age-old saying of you should never meet your heroes for many, but for others it’s genuinely a dream come true, and they achieve that through car loans, budgeting sensibly and going with a solid plan in terms of the type of car they’re looking for.

    At the end of the day, you can hardly park a bright green Lamborghini on your driveway with the intention of using it to take the kids to school. You need to think more logically as you grow up with your family commitments and bills to pay, but that doesn’t mean you can give up on your dream of owning a certain type of car.

    Just because you may have started out with a small Ford Fiesta as your first car at 17 doesn’t mean that you can’t work your way up to a luxurious Audi, BMW or Mercedes once you’re earning a decent wage and you can afford to own one.

    Being able to afford a luxury car doesn’t just mean that you have the money in the bank to pay for one, it means having the cash available to afford the running costs too. In fact, one of the best ways is to buy second-hand as plenty of people have bought brand new models directly from a dealership only to sell a few months later because they made that exact mistake – they couldn’t afford the tax, insurance, fuel and repairs.

    This means that second-hand dealers have nearly new models available at a fraction of the price you would pay for a brand new car, and the better rates available with modern car loans and the helpful bloggers and reviewers can help you to not only afford the best models at the best prices, but to get the car of your dreams without the sky-high costs and without buying the kind of car that shatters those dreams (and your bank balance!)

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

That start-up sounds pretty damn promising!

This thing packs a whopping 791 hp (590 kW) and 1,430 Nm of torque.

📌 Graskop, Mpumalanga

    • Look what’s arrived in South Africa 🇿🇦

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
