I know this. On the road it gets sooo many looks, and at meets people tend to walk around and admire them as if they were classics.
If that's already the case now, imagine in 5-10 years
What did you and your MK2 do today?

Nope, but it's my dad's car anyway so not my issue!
Personally I wanted to trade my old leon in for something with the same trade value of it so I wasn't paying to change to a diesel as such.
My grandad is trying to pursaude me to buy one and store it, he wishes he kept his mk1 escorts and is trying make up for it with mr2's lol

this moneyIt's not, but since I'll be living at home next year it's all I have to spend it on
I'll be lucky if i can put £1000 together from my, expected, £2800 loan for the year.
I'm gonna be spending around £600 to get my current leon how I want it, provided nothing else happens to it in the mean time!
Same, went from New ds3 to a 5 yr old Leon thinking it would be cheaper but didn't take into account insurance is more, servicing isn't free, road tax was free in the ds3 so works out more expensive over the year Lol. Love the car though.

Getting my eibachs fitted. Glad I didn't attempt it myself. One corner is giving them hell ;-)
My insurance is actually cheaper, having just run a quote.
I pay for servicing anyway now, but it i was to change it I may just service it myself and run the car to the ground.
Tax may be slightly more.
I know what people are saying though, its just food for thought at the minute, obviously I'd have to do proper research into it and ensure I got the right car.
Another thing that will continue to irritate me for a very long time now is the wheel bearing. It makes a noise and vibrates, and I know its there, but the recommendations I have is that its no where near bad enough to change.
I changed mine 2 weeks after I started to hear it. Could hardly hear it when I changed it. The thing it will just get worse as worse an hopefully won't completely fail on you. You do a lot of mileage to becareful. It's only a £80 part so I would get it changed.

Everywhere I've been has said the genuine part is £130, plus an 1.5 hours of labour - total around £240
Surely if you are struggling for money this wouldn't be an option lol
Maybe money that could be used to pay your old man back

Only £300 though for a map and rolling road before and after
£300 you could pay back

I've just been discussing with him and he's said it doesn't really matter about the money, just pay it back whenever!
money clearly not an issue, must be a nice position to be in, you're very lucky.
for me though I'd want to get rid of any debt as soon as possible, regardless of who i owe.

Won't the remap increase insurance though? And if you use your motor for delivering takeaways you need to get business use as well .......
Still waiting to get the car valeted after the company next door decided to empty their paint filters all over it. Saying they can't find anybody to do it. I have found someone and told them it will be £80 as it needs buffed and polished due to the damage it has done. They only want to pay to get it washed.
Got to wait till Tuesday now.
Paint work feels like sandpaper.

Remap declared and insurance is business already
