Tell me about it mate.

Luckily, I have a separate "pot" for the BMW, as I pay myself an amount each month through the company, "X" amount goes on the HP payment and the balance goes into a service account for the car. Now I'm glad I didn't go for the 911 turbo I was looking at, at the time, as the service account would have had considerably less in it than the beemer has!

The bummer is, I was going to dip into this for some bits for the scooby "extras", so the 3 inch system will probably not happen yet

Oh well, so be it and all that!
