Shhhh

But you're correct, my current R1 (1999 model, same as my first one) cost me 2.5k in 2009. Even though second hand, to match it's performance you'd need to be spending 10s of 1000s for a car

All very good until you slide into a tree at 60 mph. Then game over.

A car driver will walk away with some airbag dust on their face.
