my wife says im daft what do you think ?
i was just weighing up what owning the car costs me 
insurance £1445.00 a year ( only if paid in full )
fuel £50.00 a week
2 services a year @ £125.00 + vat each
tax £222.75 ( for 6 months
)
cleaning products, tyre's, breaks, repairs, mods
.
i have to agree on paper i/we must all be mad
, but then you sit in the drivers seat, drop the right boot and all the doubts dissapear when you hear the sweet scooby engine notes........

Im glad i don't run it daily anymore.
I never realy thought much about the cost. It just cost what it cost and i paid the bills.
Currently the scoobies running costs are £0 fuel £0 road tax £0 insurance. As for mods well this year about £25k here is a pick of the work in progress

Your service cost is way too low - have you thought of cam belt changes and "all fluids replacements" coming up
Mine used to be along similar lines, but I can tell you now that I am *SO* happy that I now have a daily driver diesel... spend 40 quid a week on fuel instead of 120, and to be honest the diesel is more fun, more comfortable and handles better at the speeds I get to do on the commute than the subaru.
