Good morning my fellow car lovers! Now, this is quite the contradiction, young boy's dream versus young man's reality. But still, this could get interesting...
Let's look at our contenders. In the left corner, we have the very green Ford Fiesta! And in the right corner, shimmering in yellow, we have the Lamborghini Gallardo!(And the crowd goes wild!!!)
Now, obviously, if you'd ask anyone under the age of 12 which car they'd rather have, they'll give you a blank stare and say,"The yellow one, silly!", and I'm sure most of us over the age of 12 would agree on that. But is the Lambo really the better choice?
If your name is Michael Schumacher, then the Lambo would probably fit you like a charm, but what if you sit behind a desk all day, just loving every moment you spent in the traffic on your way to the office? I'm sure there would have been a lot more people to give your creative hand gestures to if you were driving at the same height as your office desk...
Yes, it's a great feeling to put your foot down and feel your skin ripping off your face while going like stink in an Italian exotic, but I don't think it beats the feeling of arriving in one piece at you destination, in comfort, without any near death experiences. Then of course, when the bills arrive, which one would you rather have?
Car insurance on a Fiesta could range from R300 to R2500, depending on your age(and gender...), but what about insuring a high end super car, which I can guarantee your son WILL drive and WILL cause an accident, which WILL force you to take another mortgage on your home.
Something to think about... Fiesta vs. Lamborghini. The choice is yours!
