All the cash i have spent would have been pissed up the wall or wasted on some other pointless crap, im not selling my car, liek ever, its all paid fro and soon to be the spec i desire and there aint alot out there that could match/better it for the money.
So even tho i have spent/am spending a shit load on it, id rather mine when its finished than like a standard astra coupe or something
My 2 cents

Agreed. On my Corsa and 106 combined excluding buying them (another 12k) I estimate I spent around £12-13k on mods  finally woke up to reality and bought a real man's car last december Could have bought another one with what I wasted oh well
