TEXAS PETE 16 October 2003 01:52 PM

LG John 16 October 2003 01:55 PM

LOL - sort of reminds me of trying to take on a McDonalds milkshake :D

Fatman 16 October 2003 02:41 PM

I'm too scared to add it up. Definitely four figures, and the first sure as hell won't be a "1".

minty 16 October 2003 02:50 PM

You and me both Fatman...my bank manager loves me. :(

Silverback@work 16 October 2003 03:09 PM

After saying I wouldn't do anything to the car...

£4,000+ (since March 2003)

Average of £500 per month...if it stays like this I will have spent an extra £18,000 at the end of the PCP scheme...

I feel like I need to atone for my wanton ways now.

rossyboy 16 October 2003 03:11 PM

£1500 since bought 3 months ago and it feels like
only scratching the surface.

Blue_Boy 16 October 2003 03:14 PM

Well, over £12K on my Evo VII, then changing cars to the Evo VIII & another 1.2K on mods for that, then the change to the Spec C & another £6K on mods for that.

So it'll have to be some Stage 4 guys to top the 19.2K, sure there's plenty out there ;)

AndyBrew 16 October 2003 03:25 PM

I spent £28K modding the wife's citreon saxo 1.1 desire and now it looks like an STi8 PPP :) and goes like one ;)

Andrewj 16 October 2003 04:27 PM

Nothing at all...just love the standard look. Don't agree with the clear side repeater brigade. Tango is good enough for Subaru, so its good enough for me.

Marx Mcrae 16 October 2003 06:09 PM

Bloody hell Peccy, the car aint even in the bloody country yet :)

gadget daz 16 October 2003 06:24 PM

hmmmmm, thought hard before replying to this thread and just checked that i aquired the car on 25/7/02, that makes it 15 months old, so it's hard to guess what falls within 12 months

just checked hidden invoices at work and i think it comes to about 24.5k including this weeks work so i'd guess 20k in 12 months

wot i could of done with that....if i could turn back the clock..

gadget daz 16 October 2003 06:25 PM

.............i'd do it all again :D :D :D :D

too fcukin right i would :D
