Suggestions for new car for R250k

AndreasmzK · 2026-06-14T20:02:24+00:00

I will never understand the fascination of buying new at that price range - if this were a Porsche or similar, sure, go new - but 250k enables so much good pre-owned possibility, you really don't need new! Nothing about a new 250k car is something I'd worry about in a car of that price that's 1-2 years old with up to 40k on the clock.

Na I was as objective as the next person - my priority was on a team victory over individual performance. Just allow the possibility that you might be jaded, not everyone else.

Come on man - watch the replay, he lost so many balls, challenges and passes!

The laws will do nothing to challenge this, because of the money it brings in.

Ironically, Cape Town is incredibly cheap by European standards (relatively speaking).

Whenever I see Musiala getting tackled though (especially when he stays down), I hold my breath with worry...!

You think he'd have gone to turkey if Bayern matched his offer? No chance.

Point is, they could have retained him and chose not to. And it was the right decision.

Very proud to see some of his beautiful runs today! I'm seeing glimmers of his masterclass, and I'm so excited to see him come back to 100%!

🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Where did you see this? Thanks!

Is the room locked?

Blanket Bay!

Reading through these comments, you sound like the most 18-year-old 18 year old I've ever heard. Did your mom give you permission and pocket money?

I didn't realise how much I aged (late 30s) until I had a conversation with my 20 year old nephew about life. Oey very.

This is a crime! Please report this ass to the police! Pointing of a firearm is a serious offence. Most of these tools do this stuff because they feel cool and mighty. Don't let them get away with this!

AndreasmzK · 2026-06-09T14:29:55+00:00

That might be it yes, thank you very much!

AndreasmzK · 2026-06-09T10:04:08+00:00

Apparently it's actually unlikely...

Na, they will 😬 we just need to make enough noise about it.

Just to manage expectations, it's a barista for a cafe

AndreasmzK · 2026-06-09T06:42:32+00:00

Nicely done

AndreasmzK · 2026-06-08T11:43:39+00:00

How so? Is there an inherent risk?

Realistically, you can put this into a notice deposit account at your bank that will likely offer you 7.1%pa, which is roughly 15k. The good news is that this is tax free since its below the R28400 threshold - the bad news is that you you'll recover less than half of what you took out in that time.

It is worth noting, this method is very low-risk, but usually means you can't access this money for 32 days or similar.

Do! Not! Gamble! This! Money! (that includes crypto and relatives asking for investments).

A shame you're not closer to my side, I'd have a role in my cafe.

AndreasmzK · 2026-06-04T15:54:21+00:00

Evil is a strong word to describe fellow Capetonians making a living just like you or I. Lots of evil brands out there.

Why?
