:shock: it is a stock bonnet ;) just missing a few grams of aluminum!

 

thats one thing i wouldnt change mate, blood, sweat and tears to get that bonnet made up ;)

 

Its probably a stupid question but don't you worry about water getting in the engine with giant holes in the bonnet?

Wish id have known you was at hyper today Matt i only live half a click from there, could have had a look at the new soop :(

 

It was there for while, its at home now

 

How much have spent on your car Matt?

 

Closer to £100k than £50k :(

 

 

Have you been to get your car registered yet? Do it all go smoothly?

 

Was supposed to be going today, but, well i'll stick a thread up about it :cry: basically, i couldnt make it :(

Is that like a 'gross' figure, if you get me?

 

I have 'spent' possibly £30-40 grand on mine, but quite often ill sell a stock part off that i have replaced, and cover some of the new part cost with that so in real terms, its 'only' really around £20-£25 grand!

 

I know you did strip the old motor down, but then on the other hand its a lot of engine work problems from TF etc that cant be sold on to recover any cost :(

Seriously?

 

yep

 

:faint:

 

Seriously?? Does that include buying the car?

 

Yeah, Car was £10k

 

is that including your 1st car and all the mods?

 

Yeah

 

Imagine the car you could have for the money you have spent on the sup.

 

Thats just crazy IMO. Did the insurance not fork out for the new car?

 

Its still not resolved with my insurance company. Due to the facts of the crash, they have only just recieved the police report. Everything i've paid so far is out of my own pocket :(

I've never sold much supra stuff. I stripped the car but there wasnt that much really, i mean who wants a fire wall?! lol.

 

I sold a few items a a few quid here and there. maybe a few hundred quid back?

 

My current estimate is £75k over 3 years from buying the car to today. most of that is getting screwed and smashing up the first car and then getting screwed some more.
