I don't care how much it's cost me to be honest. It's not like I could have bought a similar car for the same ammount of money my car has cost me to build only to make a couple of hundred more back when I come to sell up. Thats not what the games about anyway, you pay for the pleasure you get when you take the car to shows or when you drive down the road and see heads turning and camera phones coming out...

Exactly i know loads of people that will go out most weekends and easily spend £100-200!

Yeh i spend same amount on my car (if you average it out) BUT i have something to show for it!

They just have a hangover and the same bank balance!
