I haven't spent any real money on my car. Usually I pay in trade.
I wish I had a trade. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |

6 figures easy....
Hell, I have at least 25K into the motor and trans! Some day I will sit down and tally up all the receipts and I am sure the number will be more frightening then my best guesstimate. |

It all happens so fast! Group: Members Posts: 4,893 Joined: 5-November 03 From: minnetonka, mn Member No.: 1,315 Region Association: Upper MidWest  |
I didnt include interest paid on the credit card so until thats paid off the cost will continue to increase.
This year Im getting hit hard, engine rebuild with bells and whistles, new turbo fabrication, paint job and all new trim. The upside is its still way less than a new high performance sports car and will out perform most that sell under 200,000 I can also claim owning the only 3.1 turbo powered twinplug 914 .

just reviewed all my records concerning the teener
bought it for EUR 10,830 in June 1999 spent EUR 5,000 since then - including really everything (even maintenance & tools) but the major part was EUR 3,650 for all seals, lines, liquids, filters new and some basic cosmetic things - something wasn't nescessary, but it gave me a better feeling (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wavey.gif) Gustl |

A whole bunch...one of these days I'll add it up.
But, I'll bet it's 4-5 times what I paid for the car (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif) Must be love! |
