I think my spend would amount to a few quid as well! I try not to think about that, just the smiles I get from driving it!  s8) 8) s8)

But it does look a bit special Phil, it's a credit to your depth of research
and love for the car, really.  I get the impression, from the way you keep popping up all over the Northern half of England/Wales, that she is pretty reliable too, despite the mods.  I'm not sure you could spend much more on her this year.    s8) 8) s8)    s8) 8) s8)    s8) 8) s8)

Oh, I wasn't including the £430 a month I pay for the repayments. So you can double my original quote. AND if we are nit-picking another grand for insurance, road tax etc... and don't get me started on petrol!!   s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
