Nice car and poor bank balance I am guessing
Not too bad , family relative owns a local car garage so i do well on labour rates otherwise id be taking anti depressants on the work gone into her and its still not as nice as I'd like. Money has gone into bits you cant see the bodywork still has a few dings and paint flake...for now

If you had to put a figure on the time and parts put into your fine motor what would you estimate?

Cheers
Car owes me 8kish all in...i paid 4800 for it
I dont think that's too bad considering whats been done to her as the engine only has 1600 mile on it so plenty of life in her

That's pretty good going! I assume you didn't mean 1600 miles lol if you did then you need to take it out more haha

Thats right..1600 lol. I struggle having the van and a mk3 focus st tdci as the family wagon lol

May I suggest getting rid of the ST and get something that barely move then you'll want to drive it more lol it's got a big boot and will move a whole family with ease... I don't see the hold back haha

That's the best mpg I can get out of the Cupra R lol

Best I can get is 32mpg. Thats cruise control on the motorway! Although according to the LTFT, I think mines running really rich (since I fitted the revo intake).

I never use cruise control as I don't feel in control lol

I just hired a van to move my stuff from Southampton to Inverness for a new job. Reasonably comfortable and 40mpg or so but as someone has said earlier they do not like crosswords!

Also I'm bored of the M6 now...just one more trip to make
