Many car buyers, particularly when purchasing their first or second car, opt for the cheapest option, which is generally seen as going down the used car route. The car is does not have to be anything elegant or massively aesthetically pleasing, as long as it gets the owner from A to B without any problems. However, although this may be apparent, there comes a time in the lives of most car owners when they contemplate purchasing a brand new car and this decision can be extremely difficult to make if only used cars have been purchased in the past. It does not take any major research to discover that, on the whole, buying a used car from a used car dealership can be more beneficial that heading to a new dealership that, for example, sell Audi cars only. Many benefits are prominent, but most notably the price and the variety that used car dealerships offer as apposed to those that, for instance, sell Audi cars exclusively. Whilst the latter of these two examples offers the buyer a greater choice, it is the first which is often the primary reason why people do not opt for a new car initially.

So I finally got around to watching the new Transformers Movie and I've got to say, I'm disappointed. Let's do a quick recap just so we know where we are. The first Transformers movie had Sam (Shia Lebeouf) purchasing first car and somehow ending up with the transformer named Bumblebee. He was on earth because the Autobots were trying to fight the Decepticons who had hidden the spark of life, a cube called the All Spark on earth (isn't it funny how all these advanced races seem to find earth so fascinating that they feel they must visit here and hide stuff here even though they think of us as puny humans who are so worthless of their time and consideration that we ought to be considered like ants?). At the end of the first movie, readers will recall, the All Spark was destroyed when Sam rammed it into the chest of Megatron, the leader of the Decepticons. Fast forward two years and Sam is now off to college while the Autobots are busy destroying what is left of the Decepticons. Little do the Autobots know however that the Decepticons have a plan and have had one all along. Another source of ultimate power exists on earth, a machine which will snuff out our sun and kill all of...more
