If you're getting the urge to gas the clio (or any of your other vehicles!) then this might be of interest

Dave - car looks lovely mate! As said, get out there and use it! Only spend on it when something breaks/is about to break

Yes mate, I definately need the cash badly enough that a weeks work is worth 5K+ tax free.
Pulling a car apart to sell the bits isnt exactly much hassle TBH unless you are a bit of a mong with the spanners.
Agreed, I just dont want an escort cosworth so would sooner have the profit personally, but its a great basis for a car

That car with 2 or 3 grand spent on it would make a GREAT 'sleeper' in completely STD trim!

Maybe not if you life is living / breathing / spunking cars
I broke my escos in to parts / barely trimmed shell in a sole weekend.
Like fuck would I buy one to make 5k. It's not splitting the car, its the hassle of selling all the shit! Storing bits / being left with loads of crap / mongs turning up
Pass thanks!
But i'd still have bought it! (and then probably broken it after a year!
)
