I reckon the total cost was around the £23K mark but I also reckon it was worth every penny.

If you PM me your Email address I'll be happy to share the spread sheet with you so you can see where the costs were and perhaps where you can make savings (like I bought the interior trim kit from Marlin and then hardly used it!!).

Christ Nigel - you have upset me now!

I gave up counting the cost long ago, then you go and put a figure on it!


.............perhaps I can carry on kidding myself it cost a lot less!!!
