How much did you spend last month

About 100 on fuel...
45 on insurance...
61 on tax...
200ish on parts / labour / MOT...
1.25 on double-sided tape to attach my free tax disk holder (didn't work )...
0 on everything to paint calipers / drums.

I feel robbed. I hate spending money. Being a scrooge rocks.

100 for a new head liner, managed to put a rip in it.. and its now leaking water from there? [:^(] not more f**king leaking problems in my car.....one day i will get it all sorted, but they seem to be getting longer [:^(]

 

300 insurance

A tank of fuel

5 litres of oil and a filter

12 on 3 runs a Santa Pod

A new clutch plate...and a gearbox the week before

50 quid that I've finally paid out to my mate for project sh1tter (mk2 Golf Cl)

Not nessecarily in that order

 

Can someone add all that up? I want to know how much we've collectively spent!

 

by my recogning its well over half a million! but thats not all on cars!

just cars it must be a 20-30 grand

 

just cars.

right, so roughly 30K a month on cars, that's 360K a year!

so, within 6 months, you can all afford to stop being selfish by spending money on yourself and save up to buy me a Porsche instead.

I think I'll set up a trust fund for it so you can all donate

 

has everyone bought a new car this month

 

Well I don't want to be in the nosey weirdo group so I thought I'd reply.

I spent a grand total of 0(25 petrol but that doesn't really count). I'm looking for work at the moment so I can't really afford to spend anything on things I don't need.

I do however have a list of things ready to buy once the cash starts flowing again tho

 

This month's bill will be bigger, about 228,500 bigger, provided council get off their backsides and give retrospective planning permission to my vendor

 

50 on general servicing stuff
105 to get the overheating sorted
350 excess to insurance company as some little pr*ck stole it!

forgot 2 x Eagle F1 Tyres 100
60ish on petrol
50 to knockhill for trackday school
rear window motor, gearlinkage repair kit 10 for both I think.

Had better months!
