Paying cash also means you won't have to make payments, which takes it off of your monthly budget. Still, paying cash can lead to other issues. If you pay cash, you may take a big bite out of your savings, and if a rainy day comes along, you could wind up in financial trouble.
vintage has a couple different meanings. it can just mean old or second hand. In that case anything that you have that was owned by somebody else prior to you is considered vintage. It can also mean anything from a previous era. I usually think anything from the 1920s to 1980, not including the 80s, is vintage. Source(s): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vintage_clo...

The Antiques Roadshow must regularly decide what is and what is not an antique. According to them, an antique is, [g]enerally speaking, an object of considerable age valued for its aesthetic or historical significance. In the antiques trade, the term refers to objects more than 100 years old.. Thus, when buying or selling an item labeled antique, trade standards suggest that the term should be reserved only for items greater than 100 years old. Outside of the practice of buying and selling items, however, use of the word antique can be understood to attach no specific age to an item.
