Like anyone in life, I have had my fair share of influences that change my opinion on certain things. If you read the very first blog post you will know that my love for cars started many years ago. More specifically when I used to watch my older brother play Need for Speed Underground. By the time I had my first car, the 'car scene' had drastically changed, and so had my life.
As you can probably see, my first car was a 2016 Volkswagen Polo. It was an R-Line with a great spec, from the rare Night Pack to the winter pack and electronic climate control. It was a good car however there was one catch.
So with the Polo, I made a big mistake, I got in over my head with a silly finance deal, and it may not have been expensive for some people but for my situation at the time I could have got a similar car for much less. However, we live and we learn. The Polo was such a nice car and it really made me appreciate and understand about looking after a car. However, since I was shelling out so much money on the finance deal, I never had the money to modify or make any changes. Not long into ownership, I ended up being involved in an accident which in turn meant the Polo was written off by the insurer. Some would say this was unlucky however it got me out of the expensive finance deal I signed my life away to and left me with a clean slate to start again.
