Almost a year since my last addition to this thread and a year of ownership just gone.
Vital work - 1 ignition coil £20
Also vital but not the cars fault - bent a rim and destroyed a tyre, over £300 although the council should pay but they haven`t looked at it yet and say it can be up to 6 months before they do, its been 3 already.
Just doing the OPG wasn`t vital but gave me an excuse to install catless DPs and a FMIC - MTC DP`s £150 (new 2nd hand) - Wagner evo 2 comp £250 (2nd hand) and OPG kit from bmw £60, engine support bar £60 - New Oil and filter £55
Oh and brake pads all round although haven`t checked if the rears are needed - £143 plus sensor for front £10
Don`t talk to me about the days of my life I lost trying to get those damn catless DP`s in!!!
£750 (assuming the council will refund the wheel and tyre) for the year with some serious upgrades for me to enjoy going forwards
