mine currently owes me about £1600 & i think i,ve got about another £700 to spend ( need tyres/prop/headlights/seats/ali for cockpit) & then the dreaded IVA/road tax & insurance so i,m hopeful that all in my original self imposed £3k budget should be about right.

Tho if i may say Mark............. your car looks stunning & i,m sure the first time you drive it on the open road the £6k figure will be well forgotten.

get your IVA, once on the road put those receipts in a folder & put them away.
what other car is going to give you the smiles per pound value? & something that you will always feel with pride....YOU built it

good luck at IVA .

cheers

Definately smug

You have found some real bargains along the way

I dont know how you do it, everything i find that looks like a bargain is normally rubbish and thats why its cheap in the first place!

i started with a number in my head of around 5-6k. i added up all my receipts the other day prior to sending off my iva forms and i was presently surprised when the total was under 4k.
