 Wants, needs and compromises - Runfer D'Hills
The car purchase decision. In the worst case scenario, you need one thing, you want another and can only afford something you neither want or need. At the other end of the financial scale you can afford most things, you want certain things but you still need something you don't want !

I need a large tax and fuel efficient diesel loadlugger, I want an expensive petrol coupe.
I drive a small / medium sized not-very-tax-efficient SUV.

Now there are reasons for that but it started me thinking about whether others here are driving the cars they need or the ones they want or just compromising somewhere?

Have some of you found your automotive Shangri-La?
