Got my bodywork bill! woooohhoooo!!!!

Post Mon Jan 24, 2005 1:18 pm

Just got off the phone to the bodyshop thats doing my car..... they were using it as a fill-in job, so it hasnt cost me as much as i thought.

The final total..................... *drums hands on table in make-shift drumroll*............................................................................

Ãƒ”šÃ‚£1850.... to be paid in cash! WOOOOOO FCUKING HOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Thats a grand less than i was expecting, especially considering the amount of work they have done to it for me.

C.B, a bargain isnt the word mate!!! lol. i was genuinely expecting 2.5-3k.
She will hopefully be finished by the end of the summer.

Russ, the RS's went on saturday to simon13 with the lachs silver sport and i had his alpinas in direct exchange. The pinas are sold to Chaos so i get the cash for then this coming saturday. I guess i need to look for some other BBS RS's now eh! fcuk. (brakes, suspension and drive train to come 1st though unfortunately!)

You know, there are people in these things called "Banks" who will give you a grand to spend on that 4pot howler. :lol:

All you gotta do is ask and they will probably say yes.
