Yes, that's got to sting a bit!
One reason I went for a pre 06 HSV and also sorn it for the winter. Softens the blow massively.

It's pretty painful when you look at the mileage you do for the money.

The only fair / sensible alternative is bin it off altogether and put all the cost on to petrol, but I'm not sure that'd help me much anyway hehe

Had a heart attack when I got mine.

Thought just short of 400 quid for the 350z was enough. My mates Mustang is only £500

How much is a pre 06 these days?

It was £230 way back when I had one

I was 2 months too late for the lesser RFL, mildly irritating when you know it's exactly the same car, before and after March 2006.

However, I'm more than chuffed with the benefit of taking the last of only 23 (as last checked) Odyssey paint left in the country smile
