Throwing money at your car

Difference between a std LET and a nice fast LET is ALOT of money I can afford it, but would rather save the money. But then i REALLY want 260 bhp


Shall i just do it

Always go with the evil voice on your shoulder, never the nice voice.

well how much is it going to cost for the LET u want?

Add this to how much the car has cost you already and then consider its resale value.....I'm sure u arnt going to see the vast majority of money your pumping in2 the car plus you probebly wont drive it for the rest of your life so why carry on? its not like the LET idea is new or even that uncommon on this site!

Tbh I think you should leave her how she is. if your still wanting to change things then I think you really should consider a new car?

Well i would never sell it for 1 of 2 reasons, it was a present, 2) Its worth fuck all in one peice.

There is no car i want that i could afford. I want an M3 evo convertible.


I love my car, wanna keep it, happy with how it looks, just need more power and some details tidying. Than im spent, for now


But theres no comparison to buy out there, if i did, id only end up spending the money on that

300bhp in a corsa - ain't we getting into japanese performance territory (unmodded obviously)??? either way 300bhp in a corsa sounds great - and like brad said it totally surprises every1 if i had the cash and could insure i'd be doing it

people are saying on the post it ain't uncommon on this site - which is true, but its not as tho ur gonna see 2 or 3 as high powered corsa's down at tesco whn your doing your shopping is it?? so therefore it does make a rare uncommon, unique and individual car....... until u go to PVS
