Sell the car, buy something else. I'd hate to see you get a £53 service bill and then neglect the car.

With that sort of money its best not to rush into it or let your mates know about it.
Put it in an ISa and let it mature over the years.

I'd sell the car too (probably get £52 for a good coupe nowadays) and just blow the whole lot on hookers + crack.

PMSL. rofl

I'm about to put a Gtech 1 Chip, Armval PRV and a boost gauge on Fleabay for £60. In true Forum spirit you can have them for £50 and you'll still have £2 left to keep the Mrs sweet. laugh

Personally I would blow the lot and buy Greece.....

or Spain, Portugal and Italy. Mind you, if you wait a bit you will probably be able to buy all four!

Set of clear side indicator repeaters plus a set of kick-plate strips - both nice subtle touches

or the opposite,

Set of rinky-dink modified rear lights (LEDs)

That's what I'd do if the car wasn't needing anything. That way when you need a turbo or clutch you'll be £52 closer.

ha ha, wouldnt buy any of the euro countries, waste of money lol. got a bailey dv and a boost gauge and hid's, like the rear lights as they are. club membership sounds like a good investment though along with some plugs etc.
