What shall I do money wise???

[leon7284]

My LCR is in need of some serious power, im so bored of it now so re-mapping is my answer BUT I have passsed my Motorbike test and now I have the problem of do I get more power for the car or have the fun and power on the bike!?! And now there is an ever BIGGER BUT, my long awaited personalised number plate has come back onsale for a wopping £5000 so now do I get a bike, or get a private plate, or throw more money at my LCR!?!

Suggestings please!

You could go and see Chelsea play for that

 

[nick-barnes07]

definately get a ihi , as i think bikes aint safe and if u fall of , your fooked ,

 

[m.r.davies]

invest it, then when your rich buy an aston martin

 

[andy123]

Unless you've got money to burn I don't think I would spend 5K on a private plate!

 

[leon7284]

Invest, im extending my loan to do one of the above.

You only live once so why not enjoy it as best you can and just hope that one day you'll win the lottery to solve your finances!

Its to buy a number plate, its the one i have only ever been searching for since i passed my test 6 years ago! Now someone is finally selling it

But a bike is calling I need that speed and thrill of a bike my LCR just aint cutting it anymore

Unless you've got money to burn I don't think I would spend 5K on a private plate!

I told myself no more than £2000, but this is 'the one and only' plate I would have. Im so particular, unless it clearly says what you want it to then why bother I think.

so, what does it say? must be pretty special for 7k. i paid £250 for mine

 

[BCM]

7k eh? what you talking bout?

But i rekon IHI might be a shout mate! and still have a bit of cash left over for an old Kwak ZZ-R1100 to do 180 mph in too!

 

[mattbeef]

do the car.
if you do the bike you will regret it come November time

 

[amccan10]

i wouldn't even consider the plate. eitherbike or lcr. tha's just stupid money, even more so if you are gonna take a loan out to get it

 

[bentaw]

IHI all the way for me and still have money left over

Have a look in the JBS forum at their recently revised prices for big turbo conversions. They might come in a bit cheaper than you think. Bear in mind the prices are a 'from...' price and don't include fitting, but you could still get one heck of a upgrade (think 350bhp+) for much less than you're looking at spending on a personal plate.

I know where my money would go

 

[ikhlaq206]

5k on a plate, thats more money than sense
CAR or bike

 

[lordgibbness]

Just get a faster car I'd say - sell your car and get a fast roadster like the 350Z.

I wouldn't waste it on the plate unless you are very plush with cash and the bike would probably kill you (seriously, fast bikes are bad!).

Also a roaster would be a little like a bike (compared to a hatch at least!).

Nice NA 3.5L straight-six in that car too.

 

[BCM]

350z, my cupra r sits with them just now, if it had been IHI'd it wouldnt even struggle to leave it for dead!

 

[karlosR]

i'd go big turbo mate, for 5k you could go either IHI or GT28 with a big FMIC and then maybe some suspension mods after that. then you can go fast all year round without getting cold and wet............ and you don't have to dress up like a power-ranger either!

Yeh. Bikes are all well and good but so dangerous. Lost count of the amount of mates and mates of mates that have either been hit, slid and come off or had a major crash doing stupid speeds.

Fair play, most of these crashes aren't helped by the speed they were doing.. but plenty of these riders are very responsible, mature people. Last week my best mates brother, a taxi driver by trade, had to bin himself and bike into a ditch to avoid being taken out by a blonde bint in a Landcruiser Amazon, middle of the road round a blind bend. It was a wet day and he was doing 40mph in a national speed limit zone. People jsut don't take bikes into account.

IHI all.the.way.

 

[ChrisUK]

I'd buy the bike, then spend some of the cash on a remap & few other engine mods........

 

[satilaboy]

sell the LCR and buy a scoob
