Thinking of selling...

[Kieron]

I have had my car for 4 months now, since owning it I have spent so much money keeping it on the road, I never thought a car could be this expensive to run. I don’t think I can justify keeping the car  

Can someone give me a rough idea how much I should advertise it for?

1992 R1

Street ported engine (done 3000 miles since rebuild)
HKS Racing Suction kit
HKS hard pipes
Blitz nur spec cat back
Pan speed ECU

This equates to 283.5RWHP and a 13.6 ¼

Pearl white re spray
R Magic front lip
Panspeed fiber glass vented hood
Mazdaspeed skirts
Mazdaspeed rear spats

Racing Beat split rims
Mazdaspeed coilovers

Bride racing seat
Willians harness
Momo steering wheel
Ultra FATT turbo timer and digital boost meter

Think that’s about it.

The car will be at the RE RR day on the 1st and at the JP show on the 24/25th on the opie stand and Santapod RWYB japshow then after that its for sale.

What do you think it\'s worth?

Sleep on it mate, at the end of the day, if you sell her then you will just end up waisting the money on booze and loose women...  :p

God everyone is selling their cars at the mo, can you not get a cheap run around and keep this as a weekend fun thing dude??

Good luck with what you decide m8

[Warthog]

Don\'t sell it. Just get an old banger as a run around.

[gmogle]

Yeah I agree, use the bus during the week like myself !!!!

Is it expensive because of the mechanical problems you have had to fix or because of the shiny bits you\'ve \'needed\' to buy ?!!!!? lol

I really can\'t afford to keep it. I\'ve been looking at it over and over again, slept on it all week but the answer is the same, the car has to go  :reallymad

I\'m going to upgrade the fueling and get it into the 12\'s at the jap show 1st, but after that...

Kieron, what sort of cost are we talking about over the last 4 months if you dont mind me asking , also what parts have you had to shell out for?

[Kieron]

Just keeping it on the road, the car hasn\'t gone wrong once, starts fine 1st time every time, hot or cold, drives extremely well and is bloody quick! BUT it costs me the earth on fuel, insurance and the rate I go through rubber is unreal  :3gears-lh

You need to get yourself a little AX or 106 diesel for everyday use mate.  You tend to cover a lot of miles I\'ve noticed, so a little diesel will probably pay for itself inside of two months, even with tax and insurance.

[Kieron]

I do far too many miles in the RX, can\'t help it as I love driving it  :cool I think a little runner is on the cards and garage the pearl one for the winter. Won\'t make my decision \'till after JapShow, depends if I get into the 12\'s  :rollin

Get a Mazda 323, they are dirt cheap and ULTRA reliable. And its a MAZDA!
