Hi, folks.
I have a question concerning the right use of tenses. Which one of the following is true:
He hasn't had his car as late as 1984.
OR
He hadn't had his car as late as 1984.
Let me help you with what the speaker means and wants to say. He/she doesn't care whether the person still owns that car. What is important in that case is the fact that "he" was without a car until 1984.
Thank you.
