Latest purchase... A fuel pump for my Ford Escort ZX2... Cost.. $389.99! :scared::grumpy: Total cost after labor, fuel filter change, and oil change... $567.84 was the total. After getting a ten percent discount and seven percent sales tax from the State of Indiana. :ouch::grumpy: Oh well, if I didn't spend the money, I wouldn't have a car! :nervous: It would be on fire! :scared: :( Runs great now and its in the driveway! :D
I just spend 360 for just the speedometer assembly. Its going to cost around another 230 just for labor.

japanese set, really nice pack, has an embossed folder and 5 art cards plus the brochure.
think i must have nearly everything...one bit on its way, an amg staff 'vorteile' brochure
 
£157,500 to be precise :D
an extra £1005 if i want carbon mirrors, amg alubeam seats...£8390! fire extinguisher...make that £100. say i want bucket seats that dont have the standard fancy electronics, adjustment, memory, heating or lumbar support, well thatl be £2770!
I'll be honest I'm not that interested in the car itself, I just like the quality of the articles, and with this car it is quite cool they have such a variety of different things for one model.

Who's the girl in a racing suit next to the SLS in the first photo?

i presume just a model, that book is the "SLS Selection" brochure, if the mrs wants her own AMG racing suit...
 
Well it's been a while since i posted here so let me post what i got these last two months, shall we.

Typical. I go online to get some ideas for Xmas presents, and end up buying something for myself...

One ticket to see Rush, early Xmas present! :dopey:
 
I'm still undecided, but my wife might be buying me tickets for an early birthday gift.

What's the date of your show?
 
May 11th, 2011... all the good seats were sold out already, but there was semi-decent section still available, so I went for it. My ticket was very expensive, esp. for a crappy venue like the SECC in Glasgow, but Rush have always been a firm favourite and they've grown in my estimation greatly in the last two years or so, hence I figured I ought to put my money where my mouth is!

My choices in Louisville are $50, $100, or $300. The $300 is front 12 rows, poster, CD, and T-shirt. $50 is upper level, $100 is lower level, no swag.
 
Went to visit a friend today
