Just wait until you start modifying and fixing the Pintara, then it gets expensive  ;)

no money - no rego. no rego - no car. no car - no money. no money - no rego.
in turn. no food. no rent money yadda yadda ya...

i prefer eating food. so it was nice that it ended up being alot cheaper than expected...

this kiiiiiiiiinda got blown outa proportion also

i wasn't saying it was the most expensive repair you have ever seen... i just said it was good to get the car back and didnt think i would have had the money in time
