Would you buy a '13 reg car?

cloonton

Am I the only one who'd think twice about buying a car registered in 2013? Or are there a few more superstitious folks like me out there?

The King of Moo

Absolutely not.

I could never afford one.

Not next year, I'd wait for a year or two and let sweet, wonderful depreciation take about 40% of the purchase value off first.

hidinginthebush

Well it'd obviously be a fake for starters

im invisible

not for another 9 months at least

I imagine there'd be something amiss if you could get your hands on a 2013 car. Doc Brown, that you?

AngryBollix

I've heard it all now

mikemac1

Hah, Michael Healy Rae was correct all along

And all of you just dismissed him
He's a sharp man :cool:

Tonyandthewhale

I'd consider it but the fact that I can't drive would probably put me off.

Ellis Dee

Would it be OK if the number plates all have XIII on them next year?:):):)

Knasher

I'd buy one second hand in a couple of years. And I'd try to buy it off a superstitious salesman, might get a discount for taking the bad luck off his hands.;)

Sindri

No, I'm currently in the process of building a vehicle capable of Alcubierre drive.


Then I won't need car.

RichieC

And you just know every car in an accident with this reg will be reported by our retarded media in that context...

Phoenix Park

I'll buy one. I'll make love in it too!

Can't wait :pac:

The Snipe

It'll be 2020 before I can afford one :P

quickbeam

I plan to. Superstition my ar$e!

Sinfonia

Yes, but not until about 2030

Ted_YNWA

dont do superstition,

tempted to request,

13 KK 1313

I'd only buy one if my horoscope said it was alright and the cards gave me the all clear. And only if a black cat or a magpie didn't cross me on the way to the dealership.

And I'd have to read the salesmans aura first. If that was okay I'd buy it.

Unless it was Friday the 13th. That's just asking for trouble.

DEFTLEFTHAND

Nope I fear odd numbers.

Mal-Adjusted

as far as superstitions go, it's about two thousand numbers away from unlucky number 13, so why not?








not that i could afford one.

Acoshla

I plan to buy one, hoping it'll be a bit cheaper because of silly superstitious people

galwayrush

I'll buy one in a few years when i can afford it, great value on 5-6 year old cars...;)

I heard the motor industry want a new number next year instead of 13 because they feel a lot of people wont buy a car with a 13 reg, i know i would not anyway.

Son Of A Vidic

Would you buy a '13 reg car?

Well I don't need new wheels, but if I did? I'd make sure to buy on the 13th of January at 13.13hrs precisely.

TanG411

Are people still superstitious? No wonder we can't progress.

Why not? What power does the number 13 have over you?
