    Should I spend all my money?

    I'm firmly in the "Make more Money" camp on this Eric! As you said you don't have the car yet so you can afford to wait and maybe find a better deal as a lot of Mk3 guys are now starting to get serious there will be some killer deals available for their current gear. In the past I've busted...

    NashMan build up
