if you really do not need it, just buy a bike and rest of the money, put them in sats.

mhh I live in a city that is not really drivable, but I also like driving and never bought a car myself. Maybe I’ll postpone this

If you really have to use a car, because... many reasons, then buy the cheapest, ugly but working one and just keep your money. Anytime you can dump it for another one without regrets and nobody will steal it :)

oh right I forgot about theft lmao, and I also forgot that in Italy we pay Bollo which is a perpetual yearly tax on car ownership, which can very well be 1000+/year

I have a friend that he lives in a auto-caravan. But he didn't bought it. Is in leasing. Practically a rent without any responsibilities, taxes etc. And when is about to expire the leasing, he just change the car for a new one. But yeah this ia another scenario where you pay a rent that could be higher than all those old cheap cars.
I would choose the cheap cars method. I did that years ago when I was "in love" with BMW cars and liked to have fast and powerful cars. But that era passed away when I realized how much money I spend in cars instead of Bitcoin. So I sold my lovely nice BMW and bought a bike and really cheap car that I can dump it anytime when is dead. The rest of the money I put them in BTC. I don't use too much the car because I live in a rural area, but I use the bike and walking.

I was exploring that option too, 250/month for a Toyota CH-R with insurance+anti-theft, no taxes and after 4 years I can change to another car.
Arguably renting a car is a much better solution than owning one unless you're rich/want to put some work on the car
