just as a matter of interest how much have you spent on your pride and joy ? say buying it and any work and mods you have done to it just a rough round about figure, plus how long you have owned it.
ive a 90 saff cossie bought for £4500 vrt was another £1000 and rough total spent on it since aug 06 is bout £3000. car prob only worth still 4500 or £5000

 

have a look at my garage, bought the car for £500

total spent is now 17k

and it still doent have an engine in yet

 

ive spent £2200 on my car never get my money back i doubt

 

Paid £5900 in 1997.
Spent circa 12K in parts since. (Used to do concours in 99/00/01 so much money spent on parts around that time)

Car is currently valued by RSOC at 6K

 

About 60K....last time I added it up with spares....

 

60k what is it

 

Its not about the money its pleasure (i think)

 

dan how the fuck have you spent that, seeing as you beg, borrow or steal most of the car parts.

either there is a serious spec i've missed

not a clue what my car stands me at.

Dont bother counting.

 

and repeat!

You'll soon believe yourself

 

and its still got a ford badge on it

 

good point, i didnt spend all that, buts the cost of all parts so far!

i gotta spend some money now tho

 

i'd be suprised if you have even spent 1/4 of that yourself.

 

I stopped counting at £25k on the orange one
I stopped counting at £25k on the blue one

 

Its an old esc cos with a few blingy bits on......

 

pmsl @ ian.

1 or 2 bits sir?

 

he's got the best quality neons around

 

about £5000 but most of the stuff ive baught so far is second hand so i can sell it again realy, but its still sitting on axel stands at the mo

 

Neither are fords well one has a ford engine but far far far to much

 

- wonder if any of the test stuff ever gets returned the fast ford resident blagger

 

then be suprised!!!

 

Bargain for the spec!!! amazing car

 

you got that right!

I had just over 100k invested in car once ... got more or less all of it back too!

 

Foook Me im moaning at spending 4Kish on a car with modification

 

I think I've proably spent around £2,500 on mine. Mostly on repairs tho

I thought that's expensive for a car I've had nearly three years but £60k! how!?

 

bah you beat me!! £400 on mine including buying it

 

12K on my Escort

 

about 10k on mods............lots more to spend......

The car cost me £17k five years ago, I've spent £18k on it since then, but its just gone in for an big spec engine rebuild!
