Just been flicking through my invoices.

Adds up to near enough £2500! 500 quid this weekend to fit all my parts before my remap. So thats £3000 since I bought the car in July this year! 3k in 2 month that I will never get back! Damn! And Im no where near finished yet!

So, to make me feel better about the 3 grand Im never going to get back, lets hear how much you lot have spent. 10k plus for a few people I bet?

Not how much you are planning to spend, or how much you would like to spend, or how much you think you will spend, lets see how much has actually been spent and invoiced!

Spent over £10,000 in 18 months.

Don't know where that money has come from and i've burnt the balaclava. Seriously though, had to stop now as it is literally throwing money away.

£3900 on the car last dec,

easily the same since on servicing, wear and tear items, exhaust etc etc. not including the repair work from the smash that his insurers paid out on.

lets say i have quite a bit of debt currently, but managable as sacrifices have/will be made

Not happy, as I've got loads more I want to do to it.

I reckon I beat you all- I have circa £70,000 of receipts for the Evo, which doesn't include the initial car purchase.

I'm glad I got the benefit once all the money had been spent

Anders_WR1

iTrader: (8)

I recon I've spend £6K a year and that's just on fuel, servicing and insurance.

Not that much on mods:

FMIC & CAIK £700
Headers & up-pipe £350
Whiteline ARB's & ALK £600
Remap's £1,000

Just about to spend another 3K on turbo, injectors and 3" exhaust!

Expensive but great fun
