MK Indy Inventory and 'on the road'costs

This is the inventory of my car - the things with Prices next to them I have purchased myself and provided to MK for fitting everything else was part of Martin's "standard" offering. Please note - there were NO SAVINGS incurred by doing this. All prices are what it cost me

When I agreed to buy the car (have it built) there was little in the manner of paperwork apart form an outline quote (in fact I didn't even get a reciept for my deposit). There wasn't an itemised list, there was nothing cast in stone and every query question and 'can I have' was met with the same "don't you worry - It'll be right - you tell us how you want it and that's how it will be" - a fair amount of trust all round I think. True to his word though, (almost) everything I've wanted altering, adding or removing has been done without issue, Martin's put his hand in is pocket for things that needed doing differently for one reason or another, and I've put mine in mine and sourced upgrades bits myself to save them time and effort.

The Standard car is £7500+Vat, uses the bike clocks, has Martin's Fibreglass seats and no Kliktronic.
