carrots 1 Posted September 22, 2010 how much do you spend on your corrado a month,i reckon i must be spending £150 on just parts not including fuel.i dont stand a chance of getting it back if i ever sold it.i reckon by the time i get it painted and what ive already paid for parts it will be well over what i paid for the car but i am very fussy and like things right :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OllieVR6 0 Posted September 22, 2010 I can't imagine there are many cars that could fetch back what you would pay in maintenance and repairs, not even modern cars. I don't spend much at the mo, not as much as I would like anyway, but hopefully that will start to change soon! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sprinterVR6 0 Posted September 22, 2010 I don't spend any because i don't have any to spend... rather depressing really :( +1 for above. wish it was 'what would I like to spend' rather then 'what do I need to fix' :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krnau 0 Posted September 22, 2010 I prefer not thinking about it :brickwall: but well, i've spent about 20.000 in 3 years of ownership which makes about 500 a month :gag: excluding the 300 in petrol per month Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swompy 0 Posted September 22, 2010 I brought mine just over a year ago for £2000 and a couple of months ago i added up all my bills and it came to just under £2500. Which if you do the maths works out to be £208.33 a month on part. If you go for fuel and insurance then its about £65 for fuel and £96 for insurance a month Its not worth thining about tbh :cuckoo: :nuts: :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toad 0 Posted September 22, 2010 It really varies, sometimes you can spend hundreds, sometimes you spend nothing. It will cost you more than you budget, no matter what. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
