This is a question Tightwads

There's saving money, and there's being tight: saving money at the expense of other people, or simply for the miserly hell of it.

Tell us about measures that go beyond simple belt tightening into the realms of Mr Scrooge.

I too Love Teh Shit Car
Its great being able to bodge it to keep it going.

Had a battered Audi 80 on a H plate. paid 280 squids for it. Had it 2 years, added 110k to it and flogged it for 70 squids when the gearbox went .

One day I decided to investigate a slight oil leak. I found a dent with a small hole in the sump pan.

Araldite and a chopped up tin of catfood fixed it good and proper.

Repair was probably stronger than the rest of it.

Good Times
