Damned I really want a Desert X

There were a couple standing at a dealer not far from me that deals in Ducati ... they are damned good looking bikes.

Had a look online too. Some dealers are offering the base model for 14.995 plus you get a 500 quid Ducati voucher. With a 4 year warranty. 
 

15 grand at todays rate is about 340k. So quite a bit cheaper in ZA. Our vat rate is 20 percent but still a large difference.

My brother in law was telling me the fines are linked to how much you earn. The higher the salary the steeper the fine. You going to feel it.
