I've now got a stunning looking car with all bells and whistles at a fraction of the cost.

This is the second car I have done this with. I bought an really nice E36 touring for £3400 nearly 4 years ago with 51K miles and is now on around 80 and still going strong with quite minimal outlay. Sounds a lot but if you do the sums 4 years with minimal outlay and the fact it is probably still worth something now, starts to make sense.

On the other hand I could have bough a boring estate which could still end up with some big bills which I have to look at every day.
That's a real stunner and only 35K on the clock!
