RE: Money, money, money!! The 2015-16 Push to the Premier League - Act 1: Summer 2015 - Maddix - 10-09-2015
I had a fantastic Peugeot 405 GRDT (Company one) that was like shit off a stick, with a sun roof and all electrics
Loved that car but the bastards took it off me because it was getting too old and gave me a fuccking Vauxhall Vectra Envoy with bastard windy windows and a radio/cassette that packed in after 9 days

I know. That's $51K Can. I could get a luxury car for that price. Brand new Honda Civic here costs about 11-12K pounds sterling and they're offering interest rates as low as 0%.

That's why it's called 'rip-off' Britain these day's PEI
The list price for the model I've just bought is a shade under 26K brand new but we don't have a lot of choice in the conglomerate price fixing realm we live in today. A ten year old banger will set you back at least 1.5K on these shores Think yourself lucky that you don't have to live here but don't get jealous of proper bacon and sausage sandwiches with Daddy's Sauce either

So who's going to set up the 'Top Gear' thread then ?
Maddix's Top Gear thread for all things car! - St Charles Owl - 11-09-2015
Here you go Maddix, I will even move the posts so far on the subject.
RE: Maddix's Top Gear thread for all things car! - peiowl - 11-09-2015
Even as far back as '69 when I moved to Canada, car prices were cheaper here. Even cheaper in the US. We do have a sales tax to add to our prices. This varies from 5% (Alberta) to 15% (Nova Scotia). We're 14% in PEI.
RE: Maddix's Top Gear thread for all things car! - St Charles Owl - 11-09-2015
Same here Pei, ranges here from 6% to as much as 10% but in some states the sales tax is 0%, for me here in CA I think its 8%. Still not as high as VAT in Britain though!!!
RE: Maddix's Top Gear thread for all things car! - Thurnscoe_OWL - 11-09-2015
20% VAT and there's talk of it going up further as well
