I wonder if the $100k has been spent on paying for other people's crashes when they see it :

Maybe the 100k was spent steam cleaning the seats and carpet every time someone got in and vomited due to the horrendous colour scheme. Damn.

For 100k would you rather have wasted your cash on that or something like a ferrari or porshe or BMW or even FPV etc etc etc........ You get my drift!

C'mon the Fux-capacitor was something the Doc invented in back to the future, there must surely be a Light Saber in the glove box or something. I don't think he spent 90k on Jedi training either cause from my understanding Yoda bought in a scholarship program and the government gives you a $5000 'First Jedi Grant' too

P.S. I might message him and ask about the Light Saber

I know where the 90k went? Research & Development into the Windsor "Light speed" Transfunctioner this person obviously doesnt have a background in Quantum Physics as i myself have tried to (unsuccessfully) Master this Technology while under the influence. It looks like a eftpos machine & blows blue smoke, so the voices tell me!! :

Of course now it's starting to all make sense. Here I was thinking that some guys took this owner for a ride everytime he paid for something.
