That's 4 years of saving and buying. And if its not good by then, then it will never will lol
But to be honest my spec has changed so many times. And this is where I drew the line and said no more. That's currently sat in in the car,

It wasn't 1 of the worst out there don't get me wrong, it had just been sittin on his drive for a year or so before it got stripped, so needed the odd patch and a paint.
