When I was younger, cars were unreliable pieces of shit. I’d never buy a car between four and eight years old, that’s when they really started needing work. After that, most dodgy bits had been replaced and rust was the biggest killer.

Manufacturers know this,and have spent the last decade convincing people they need to lease a brand new car every three years
They’ve convinced mugs that cars are a subscription service
