nowt to do with abba

just wondering,how much cash peoples cars owe them?

be interesting to find out what the cars cost along with mods etc...

i can imagine some must be while others



so far i`ve spent(wasted )$320 on two cars,a 318 POS and a 325SE breaker
$250 on a set of wheels
$100 on a cheapo suspension setup
$0 on a stainless remus backbox
$25 on a rear spoiler
about $35 on lights,indicators etc

sure theres something i`m missing.......
doesnt seem like much there!!

still to recuperate(sp?)some of the cash from breaking the 2 cars but we`ll leave that out for now

Crikey!
I've not seen that car in the metal - it must be flippin' nice!

I've spent an embarrassing Ԛ£5300 on my 335i.
You wouldn't think it by looking at it!
Nearly half of that was on the engine/rebuild and under bonnet stuff that goes with it.
The rest - The car, donor 535i, bucket seats, lsd, E36 rack, new suspension, new brakes, roll cage, cat1 alarm, oils, 17" wheels etc.
I keep every receipt I get so that includes EVERYTHING - nuts, bolts, washers, bulbs, antifreeze and maintainance costs so far - the lot.

I don't really care though, I enjoyed putting it together and have a fantastic feeling of achievement that I wouldn't have got from just going out and buying a car. That is priceless!

I haven't finished yet.

Still got to sort out body/paint, anti-roll bars, poly bushes, bigger brakes, fix whatever I break first and other stuff I get tempted with along the way.

But hey, who cares, it's only money

They are nice pics dude - that car looks flippin' gorgeous!
Well done to you and your dad!

[dobbie82]

my breaker owes me about Ԛ£1500 but thats mainly spent on servicing and repairs, no mods.

[dazleeds]

im not too sure what mine owes me at the moment but at a guess
id say abour 2k maybe 2500, fortunatly most of it has been paid for by the cars ive broken
so im not complaining although im nowhere near finished

and the 2.7build is about to start too so thats gonna add some more to it
id imagine when its all done and resprayed next year ill have around 5k in her
