Ive brought this one year ago last week.
Best thing ive done if im honest... few things ive noticed since now running 2 cars, both + and -.
Fuel costs me £20 a week for around 170 mile range.
Car insurance required as Greenlight dont do joint car policys as my Ed30 is modified. Cost £209 for a years premium.
Car tax is now £20 a year.
Brand new purchase. paid £2000 on a 4 year deal, car has 5 yrs manufactures warranty. Cars paid for in 3 years from now, with no finally payment. Its mine to keep.
I pay £133 a month.
as to the Ed30...
Was costing me £65 a week in fuel for being used daily for same mileage.
Insurance still the same, as is road tax.
Ed30 now only gets used by me when i get the opertunity. On a plus, i clean it, and its still clean when i get the keys lol. Mileage now is now relitively lower for age and is good if your planning to keep this kind of car long term as i plan to.
Wear n tear rates on the golf have also reduced dramatically.
If you weigh the two up, im proberly not any worse off due to the ammount of fuel savings im making a month, which covers the cost of owning and running a 2nd car if im honest, but as a huge lover of my Ed30, im extremily happy that shes staying in great condition tucked away for when the mood takes me, and not being slowly run into the ground.
