Out of interest, how much will this all end up costing?

Chadd · Post by **Chadd** » Wed Nov 19, 2003 11:27 am

including the car when i bought it, it will owe me Â£38k

those lights look funky!

Â£38k!

Could've got a second-hand Noble M12 GTO for that!

Still, as another poster said, "if it floats your boat..."

38K is an awful lot of money

When are you hoping to have it finished?

An even more horrible thought. I reckon with a bit of luck and a following wind you could have had a Ferrari F355 for that.

OK, OK, I'll stop mentioning "other cars you could have had for Â£38k" now

TBH I'm amazed that you can do this. That must be Â£20k's worth of mods that would be worth all of about Â£2.50 come resale time. Personally I bought the Cerb as I was fed up with buying new cars and the savage depreciation that comes with them. I was sorely tempted to get an RX-8, but how much will that be worth in 12-24 months time?

Have you had an insurance quote yet?

How long will your car have been off the road?

20K of mods on what is basically a ... car. Now that really is ... an excellent idea!
