Just buy reflectors from a Trailer Hire shop - £2 and you'll be fine for the MOT.

20k aint that much really, not when you spread it over a few years.

I spent 20K on my car over the last 3 years including buying the car for £4.5k. Its everything i want it to be, so don't regret spending the money. It became a major hobby after splitting from my fiance after 3.5years. I have had some of the best times of my life through doing my car, been loadsa places, won trophies, had mag features, been on TV and met some great friends. Wouldn't change if for the world. And if ive got the money i can spend it on what the hell i like If i had £20K in my pocket at one time i would of spent it on a TVR but that wasn't how it happened we're talking over a 3 year period, which makes a lot of difference.

You don't modify your car for other people Sooty and you certainly don't do it to make it worth more Vibs

Donna - nice to see your car in TV. I've heard so much about it and it's nice to finally see some pics
I completely agree with what you said there - I've done exactly the same with my Corsa. It's a gradual thing - part of the fun of modifying a car is seeing it develop over the years, and if you think of the expenses as a hobby rather than car parts it's not so bad.
Fair play to you
