Blowing 18 grand on a vauxhall is probably the stupidest thing you could do, best avoid that at all cost's

Because i would have said it's a more wise thing to invest his money into, he could purchase a small cheap car and then use the rest for a house deposit? I realise it was only asking about cars but just though of it as an idea.
