August 2009 - bought mates MOT failure 2000 2.5 v6 elite for £300 as he was emigrating.

August 2009 to Feb 2010, replaced four tyres (tracking etc), ht leads, coil pack, front discs & pads, rear exhaust, plugs, rear springs - total costs (can't do it myself) £1000 approx.

Rest of the motor's in pretty good nick with all the toys working well. How much more do I spend? Would I be able to recover any of it if I sold it? 78K miles on clock. :-/ :question

Yeh, but hang on matey.
All of what you've mentioned are consumables & you could replace them on any car.
I'd keep it now until something major goes

Just got to persuade the missus it's worth keeping now. I'm only just getting the hang of "driving like I stole it"
