Icetoo,
I have read the thread and you are whinging about your woulda, coulda, shoulda bought a cobra. All of us here I would think have built our cars either to a budget, or as we could afford it. Maybe you need to re-asess what it is that you want, if you want wine you may need to forget a beer budget. |
[Now in an attempt to de-highjack and get back on track...what is the protocol regarding my earlier proposed inquiry for re negotiation protocols of a failed online auction sale?:)[/quote]
Let it go..... It was not meant to be.... |
yep...No worries, gone is gone, the bridge is built and I am over it....and I have a couple of other contenders on the books.
I have a lot more than 50K to spend but do not want to blow it on the initial procurement and would rather save some funds for bits and pieces for a car that is OK at a certain baseline and ready for enhancement within regulatory restriction....instead of spending 95K on a car that needs no further work and looks pretty that I do not want to break:D |
May I suggest you just build one yourself?
Depending on how much of the labour you do yourself, and you dont buy the first item you see that you need (researh and hunt the bargains) then I dare say within a few years you will be driving your car. |
Sure...I have still considered this but it will take me about five years or so to complete, noting I spend two thirds of my time out of the country serving my country....and when I am home time is spent doing the catch up things that I could not do that still need doing when I am away. Leave is at the convenience of the ADF rather than the member a lot of the time.
I am assuming that by 2017, NSW build compliance may also include radar assisted braking distance capability too;) BTW...I am not whinging...merely expressing operational restrictions:LOL: |
