cars are Never worth the money...
I have a daily shitter focus 1.8 on a W plate, go everwhere in it and its beaten up, throw engines in the boot, offer to drag cars around for mates etc - its a old motor and quite frankly I kick its head in every time i drive it.
but then ive got my Saphs, Technically there money pits as i will never see back what im putting into them, but for those few hours I get to tinker with them its worth it, most relaxing thing I do without the missus
