I, like you, buy things or sell things when it suits me. So I bought an F12 in August. My first super car. I don’t care if it was conventionally the ‘wrong time’. I did the maths about where the world is now and decided I could afford it. Job done.

Hi Tom, you did what you thought is best for you at the time and at the end of the day it’s your money and you had to paddle through some choppy waters and you come out of that better and stronger and to be fair I don’t think anyone will have a pop at you for doing what’s needed. The are many people around the the U.K. selling their family car as they can’t pay the bills or the rent and some also have been depending on food banks and that’s before we leave the EU full stop at the end of December. I think it’s safe to say at this moment in time the music is slowing and when the music stops this country will get real extremely quick as COVID-19 has just been the starter on the menu and the main is Brexit and your a clever guy you can work out the rest.
