I have taught you well!!!

I have never even seen a Bill from Martin, if you look at how much things cost then it starts to hurt. Also never pay with cash.... seeing it is also painful

Just bury your head in the sand and use internet banking to pay for everything

Mine cost me 6k to buy 6.5 years ago, i have a big folder full of receipts, i've not added them up, but i know it's alot more than the purchase price, obviously that doesn't include the items that i've bought cash to save abit of money and i don't want to know how much i've spent, because i'm scared And i still haven't finished spending either

Should rename them to "cost-alot-worths"

On my XR4i I'd guess around £3K tops.

On my XR4x4 I'd have a heart attack if I worked it out, something in the region of 8K in turbosystems receipts but to be fair I need to add the cripling debt interest I made for myself paying for it.

Glad I got my fingers burnt quite early on to be honest, made me learn some important lessons.

Had the car since 1993 so if would add it all up I would probably go hang myself afterwards.

My black 3 door was standard when I bought it!! As with Martin and Mike I am afraid to add it up as I know what I could have bought with the money instead, But I do it for the love and to be different!!
