"BETTER LATE THAN NEVER"
Doing something late is better than not doing it.
Example: John gave in his homework yesterday. He was supposed to do it a month ago, but better late than never.
Más vale tarde que nunca.
Example sentences:

- I’m sorry I’m late for the meeting. I got stuck in traffic on my way to work. Better late than never, right? / Lo siento, llegué tarde a la reunión. Me quedé atrapado en el trafico camino al trabajo. Más vale tarde que nunca, no?.
