Who adds up what they spend on their bus or have spent - total?

I have all the receipts in a box, but I don't really want to know :-

 

That is something I wouldn't want to know, or more specifically for Linda not to know.......

 

I started to when I first had it but I thought it would get a bit depressing if I kept totting it up so I stopped recording it about a year ago.

 

I have all my receipts in year order and thats as far as it goes.

 

No, that would be silly, the money's spent anyway.

 

:laugh2:

You are all wimps ;D That or sensible and value your marriages and relationships more than you realise!

 

never it would be to depressing and i would end up with a transit

 

NEVER!
have all receipts from previous owner of the bug and just add mine to it.
bus receipts are separate and will never be added up either.

ignorance is bliss - or so rickyroo tells me

 

I started carefully recording all of the purchases / work done, but decided it was pointless, although I can't help adding it up in my head sometimes! I've spent money on things that I want (proper fridge, propex, woodrim steering wheel, decent paint job, nice interior) as well as things that I had to get done (mechanical work to make it roadworthy, some welding, new seals all round, new poptop canvas, rewire ..............) and consumables that have yet to give any value (new tyres, clutch and brakes). It adds up to a lot (more than it will be 'worth'), but I hope that starting with a van in good condition will allow me to use it regularly with decent reliability and reasonable ongoing running costs. That's my justification anyway

 

Yep, we're up to:
$650(406£ ) for the bus
$285(178 £) licence plates & fee's
$20(12.5£ ) for used tires
$85 (53£ )for paint & thinner
$20(12.5 £) for sandpaper
$20(12.5£ ) for body filler
$5(3£) for rear seat
$20(12.5£ ) for 2 extra rims/wheels
$20(12.5 £) for sander
I'm sure i'm missing some???

 

We dont add up what we have spent on the house or the tropical garden for that matter, why would we start adding up what we have spent on Bunbury!
