i have an expendable budget of about £1200 this month yay all my jobs gave me the money from couple months part time at once, so what should i buy with it? id like to get the most possible out of it, with 300 i think ill have to buy suspension brackets engine mount plates suspension bushes etc (where should i get these) and argon gas, but what should i get with the rest? what is the furthest i could get with the build with thhis moolah?
thanks alan

You could build almost 5 locosts.

Put it on a bank account!!

I'd be inclined to buy the higher cost items such as shock/springs and bodywork.
Most other bits are cheap enough to buy along the way.

why not invest in your pension with 1200 lottery tickets...


only kidding I've never even played

personally i would stash most of it and only buy the bits you desperately need for the next bit of build - and even then take time to shop for absolute best deal.


Cash is quite an asset these days.

It's only a problem when you don't have any
Just get what you need and save the cash till you need the next bit. I have no end of bits that I needed still sat round doing nothing and could have used the cash for beer and other essentials.
