You being a veteran in offroading - I totally respect your opinion sir you are right that it seems on higher side at first glance but lemme share some major expenses which are on my finger tips:
Project Vehicle 190000
Registration 90000
Engine & Transmission 150000
Seats 10000
Fabricator & Mods 100000
Dent & Paint Jobs 45000
Tyres & Rims 80000
Total: 665000
I can share receipt of above expenses right away, And there is a long list of msc expenses as well which is saved somewhere in my computer. I am upgrading this vehicle from last one year and its still parked in my mechanics workshop who is continuesly upgrading it and I only borrow it from him on Sundays
The quality of jobs and materiel used in modification / up gradation is awesome and seeing is believing. And you must also know that what kind of expense are required during resto mods
However, as i have decided to let her go and i also understand that its an expensive hobby so i am willing to sacrifice more as well so let your friend make an offer.
I will definitely consider if thats acceptable to me.
Best Regards,
