One Year On!

Vyker · February 10, 2008

Hello Everyone,

Just thought it would be fitting to celebrate my 1year anniversary of my IS200.

I bought the car on the 9th Feb 2007 for £4,800.... and here are some stats..

I've driven 16,300miles.
I've spent £2,443.13 on Fuel
The car costs me 34p/mile
My highest MPG was 30.1mpg back in June 2007
My average MPG - as in my signature - is 25.4mpg
Fuel has averaged at £17.53 per every 100miles i drive.
I have spent £2,933.84 on servicing, MOT, Tax, Insurance, repairs, mods.. everything.
Total spend on the car has been £5,376.98 <-- that figure is EVERYTHING! i really mean EVERYTHING!
I've posted 300+ times on the forum... under 1 a day :(
I've been to only one meet, which im sad to report, many failed attempts however

The Mods ive done to it.....well... A sport grille :P oh oh and some HID's :)

I've loved owning the car, its so much fun to drive, I've had my ups and downs, from the Bird strike and the lorry, to my recent spin, but all in all, its a great car.

I would have loved to have been able to get rid of it and buy Gords supercharged car, but that just never materialised.

Some Pictures...

Here it is on the dyno at TDi

Here is its Dyno Chart

And finally.... my avatar picture :)

As you can probably see, i'm a bit of a meticulous statistician, but hey, it helps me work out if my company dont pay me enough to run it, thankfully they are.

May there be another year of great ownership and membership to the wonderful LOC.

Here here to LOC! :)

Signing out, a pleased Vyker!
