Hi guys, not really a "car chat" topic, so we can discuss how this affects expenditure on our cars or something.

Just wondered if anyone is feeling this yet and how?

Hi

Still work to be done. Just I don't want to get into any debt to buy things.

All the best

Keith

Well somebody's gotta do it!!!
Only been in the business a couple of years having worked for many
years in the building trade.
Right move...right time me thinks.
Trouble is I spend more time driving the big black car than I do my Alfa
these days so there is a downside.
