    A car is one of the most significant purchases that you’re likely to make. Few of us treat a car like an impulse buy, as nice that that would be. So when you do find yourself choosing a car, it’s important to figure out what you need. What does your perfect car need to have? How can you be sure it’s going to take care of you for years to come? Luckily with a bit of research and planning, you can make that choice a lot easier. It’s just important to ask the right questions. Here are a few things that you can do to help you choose the perfect car.

    Budget

    Step 1 in choosing a car will always be figuring out exactly what you can afford. Everyone’s budget is different. There are those who wouldn’t baulk at six figure sums while many of us might be considering slightly more modest budgets. Whatever your budget is, it’s important to know exactly what you can afford. That’s not just limited to the price of purchase but the costs of running and ensuring the vehicle itself. Not only that but when you know your budget, the most important thing is to stick to it. Don’t let smooth a smooth talking salesman convince you that stretching beyond it wouldn’t be that much of a problem. No matter how in love with a car you are, if you can’t afford to buy or to run it, it’s not worth it.


    Used, new or nearly new

    There’s a lot of temptation in the inviting shine of a brand new car. But that might not always be the best option for you. New cars undoubtedly come with a lot of benefits. New cars come with a warranty which can offer a lot of peace of mind. Not to mention that it’s much less likely to suffer a fault of some kind. But when looking at what you can afford then used might be the way to go. Even after a single year, the price of a car can drop significantly. A year old car will save you lots of money but won’t yet have started to suffer from the typical problems that can affect a lot of used cars.

    The bells and whistles

    Cars today come with so many features that it can be difficult to figure out which one’s are important and which are just luxuries. As always, it comes down to what you need from your car. If you find yourself struggling to park then consider a car with rear sensors to help you avoid obstacles. For music lovers, it’s worth going for a car with a stereo that allows you to connect via USB or Bluetooth so that your tunes are always at your fingertips. However, if you’re not particularly interested in any of the most advanced features. Then you might be happy with something older or more simple.

    Whatever you go for then it’s important to focus on exactly what you need. Try not to let your heart take over and focus on making smart decisions to ensure you find the perfect car for you.

    • Aston Martin calls it the 'fastest luxury SUV in the world' and 'the supercar of SUVs' but is the DBX707 worth all this hype?

It is the fastest and most powerful SUV you can currently buy (order) in SA so there is that but the reality today is that the 707 will have to dice with the Urus, the Bentayga Speed, and the Cayenne Turbo GT for hearts, minds, and wallets.

Aston estimates 65% of DBX sales going forward will be this 697 hp (520 kW) and 900Nm variant and after driving it, this might be an underestimate. If the regular DBX is in your price range, then you can almost certainly afford a DBX707.

It can hit 100 km/h in 3.3s and go to a ridiculous 310 km/h so, of course, it is properly quick but it is just as impressive when the roads get twistier and it instils an enormous amount of confidence in the driver.

If you fancy snapping up this contender for the Super SUV king title, you are going to need at least R5m making it significantly more expensive than the Lambo and Porsche counterparts but you will be driving something a lot more rare which could be the reason you hand your money to Aston Martin.

What do you all think?

    • The new BMW M240i xDrive barely puts a foot wrong. The price is right, it's crushingly quick, more than practical enough to daily and if you only look at the front, it is very easy on the eye 😉 

It pulls properly hard, doesn’t feel turbocharged in its response, and delivers thrills when you want them. The extra confidence and pace afforded by the sweet pairing of the straight-six petrol engine and the rear-biased xDrive AWD system make the M240i an enticing proposition all of its own.

If you gave any BMW fan a wish list and asked them to build the perfect car given the company's current resources, it probably wouldn't be too far off this one.
