See now this is why I bought a daily drive. The point of it is to not have to worry about all of this BS ^^^
Yep, highly modified car with custom wiring does not in any way equal reliable economical daily drive.
Mine hasnt been modified in this way and I still only rack up about 1000km a year. Triton on the other hand racks up 50000km a year. Less than 3 yrs old and 150000K. Not a single thing has needed to be fixed however.

Great buy Ben! It's nice to have a car that you won't worry about breaking down for a while, no clunks and comfort
And a car that doesn't cause you to clench up a bit whenever there's a police car around
You never get a second chance to make a first impression.
