This month rear beam £420, driveshaft gaitors probs £20. But in the last year probably spent another 2-3k in bits and bobs and shiny things and tyres and big brakes etc.doesnt do many miles now so hopefully it won't need much else maintaining. Need an oil cooler kit though before summer.

Just put a clutch and driveshaft seals etc in the hdi as it felt crap since I bought it 11k ago and started slipping now its remapped to 125bhp. I consider that a consumable though. Only time it's ever gone wrong was the low pressure fuel pump packed up. Got it working with a bash with a hammer so still got me home and fitted a new one next day. Otherwise it's only been tyres and brakes.

Yeah true, but that was only to get a slightly quieter exhaust fitted in an emergency, I was quite happy with the old one, so was the car...Smile

This Month my Daily Six cost me a nearside Driveshaft and lower arm + am convinced it has shagged the suspension top mount! so that's on the daily and a tyre that decided to gain a 4 inch gash in the sidewall hitting a pothole.that £200 Thumbs down
my project six don't really want to think probably £800 on that this month and still many more months of that sort if expense until it is complete. but that's the fun of the project. Last 12 months probably spent excess of 10k Superman

edit: Oh, plus tax and insurance obviously.


18k ? Interesting ?

Care to tell us what on dude ?


On a new set of tyres, a bit on the dear side if you ask me.

Spent about £30 with Torques today on some plumbing bits for the fuel rails. Why did I decide to go 8 injector? Twice as much plumbing, and I need to send my loom away to have the 4 extra injector plugs/wires added, that's another £100 I'll never see again.

    hmm,
    Clutch, cable, diff seals & some bolts (& a very reasonable time charge for mark), windscreen washer cap, 4th Cyclone. many ££s there

    Just ordering rad, rad hose, head gasket, head bolts, brake discs, brake pads, oils, coolants, brake fluids, spark plugs, thermostat, alloys being powder coated, petrol... again, possibly a windscreen if this chip breaks away before the weekend. No oh and a head if anyone's got one.... hint hint.

    £££££££££££££££££££££££££££ Thumbs down

    But hoping it will be Thumbs up very soon now!
