Default Bad NEWS and Good NEWS

Had the Survey on the house i was buying today and it needs loads of work there's sign's of flooding, damp, subsidence and the electrics are not up to standard. So i've decided no to bother buying it, means i've lost £250 for the survey, gutted.

Good news is i've now got more money spare to spend on the car.
Coming soon new interior and a few more engine tweeks.

Would love to but thats about £2.5K, don't really want to spend that much on it. Just a few minor tweeks, reversed inlet manfold (waiting to see the results of yours first), ported headers and a more MAF friendly induction kit and a map MAP tweek.

I am still going to buy somewhere soon, just want to pay my credit card off first and do a couple more things to the car. Probably in about 6 months.
