I bought my Mazda 2 nearly two years ago for slightly more than S$70,000. I thought it was a little expensive but I pillarised my then Mazda 6 and was somewhat depressed. So, I got a new car.

2. Tea with AK71: Bought a new car!
Anyway, buying a new car then proved to be a somewhat fortunate move since car prices have shot through the roof!
