cost of keeping your pride and joy

[bduffman]

As stated how much do you think you have spent on your fto ( not including buying it ) but services repairs upgrades ect ect
And over how long

I've had my fto umm half a year or so give or take and I've spent mayb 6k

[aza013]

3 and a 1/2 years money into it aprox $19000, But only about $4000 of my own money

[bduffman]

Who's money ?

And im in debt bout 10k for my fto but only to parents paying back 250 a fortnight or some thing like that I just give mum 800 a fortnight and she sorts out my bills lol

8 years & about $60,000.

Oh & I paid $22,900 for it back in 2002...

[spency]

7-8 months and maybe 4k once i've got it back on the road?

[I8A4RE]

Probably just shy of 20K excluding the purchase of the car

I should add $4560 for the tyres I have used up on the track and street. So that puts it up over the $23500 and other bits like front bars side skirts bumps it up again another $1500 (with paint)

total = $25000 + as I know there would be more

[Astron_Boy]

I've spent more on my 80s Magna wagon than the wifes FTO.

scary really.

FTO in total over the 3-4 yrs of ownership, we bought it, serviced it, and bought carbon fibre.

Total, about $20K
(Car was 10K- when facelift GPX were still a rare site)

[yotka]

Excluding purchase price, about $5k spent on parts and labour, on replacing worn engine parts and rear suspension. Would have been much more if the workshop hates me.

Edit: Also had to source majority of parts from UK and Singapore myself.

[bduffman]

Grand a month looks like im well on my way to becoming the next ben lol

[EscapingFate]

Hmm ive only spent about 3k on mine since i bought it about 2 months ago now..

[Chiinkstarrh]

1 year of ownership spent over 10k xcluding the car itself! and now shes gone

[Bennoz]

Makes me a little bit sick actually, the 80,000 odd grand blown on this car, the 100,000 odd grand blown on my mini (no pun) the 100,000 grand I've burnt by smoking for 15 years.... I should be a f**king land baron by now & own half of Sydney

If I had my time again, I'd do things a bit differently!

[bduffman]

you say that now but im sure if you did go back you would end up missing modding your car

i know i couldnt stand to drive a stock car and have it look like every one elses would be plain boring

[spency]

the 100,000 grand I've burnt by smoking

pun intended that time?
