Re: The SVX and you

When I bought one I put in more repairs cost then what I paid for it . Of course I did preventative maintenance. Adding up my repairs in my Barcelona it was purchased for 2000 dollars and then with in 1 year 1/2 I have put over 4000 dollars back into it. Now the engine is needed to be pulled and HG done on it (I believe). My Emerald I ended up having as much money as I bought it for back in repairs/preventative stuff. Not to scare anyone :O but people needed to know what can happen. Then again sometimes people get them and don't have any problems.


Summary: Repairs exceeded cost of purchase..
