VERY!!! :eek:

When we ran a group N car for a couple of years they were affordable. We were then convinced that a 98 car (S5) wasn't much more expensive to run so we moved to that. To be fair that was a great car and very reliable (T1 SRT) and it didn't cost that much more to run but the rebuilds are expensive! Since then we have had an S6 and S7.5 and now an S9 and it looks like the newer they are the more expensive they are to run!

As for pre event prep then yes there is lots to do and check, even if you are only doing 1 day rallys. Morgan Motorsport reckon on 45 hours re-prep for each event. I know that sounds a lot (and is) but it is probably a days labour to wash it after a forest event before you start (underguards, wings and bumpers off before you start washing it!).

Hope that helps - are you looking at buying one, or just interested?

Nick
