Lol and here's me worrying that my next renewal might go over the £200 mark for the first time in 50 years!😀 Getting vaguely back to the point I do wonder if a higher performance car is worth the hassle nowadays, tbh. I was seriously thinking about something nippy again (Gti/ST or above) for a few years last blast in a petrol car before we all have to go electric.
