I bought mine only a few months ago. Its very much a 2nd well in fact 3rd car. Found a great plate on dvla for her. Took it out for a blat today with lid off and had the wheels spin up in third on a greasy road. Big grins. Then got it home washed it. Then took kids out one at a time in it. Lasted for about 20 mins before they were bored and wanted to come home! And now it sits on the drive ready to go back into its store about 10 miles away from me. Anyway it got me thinking if I should sell her as perhaps I'm really not going to get that much use out of her. Then thinking of all the extra costs - insurance, tax, serviceing, MAINTENANCE. Anyone been through this and kept theirs or sold it and regretted it? I'm wondering what she's likely to cost to run long term. Chassis and outriggers totally solid. Full TVRSH and currently no issues. What are my fello PHers thoughts?

We sold our Chim and really, REALLY regretted it! After a Cerbera and an Elise we now have another Chim. Don't sell it, you will regret it! S

Spend,

Funny how you can read things wrong and in a totally different way.

It all depends how peoples minds work, maybe coming back later is a better idea?
