hahaha, first time ive ripped up the carpet since buying the car (ex cab) and I found $416.80 worth of coins under the back seat! add that to the $12 I found under the front seats when I replaced them a while ago and the car cost me $430 less than I thought!
A very pleasant surprise, Anyone else found large amounts of cash when buying a new car??? |

All I found In my AU when I bought it was a picnic wrapper stuck behind the ashtray :(
And I found a keyring under the seat and a flyer for a church fundraiser in the glovebox when I bought my first car ('92 KH laser) no money yet though... a friend on mine found like 25 bucks in the ashtray of his KE TX3 laser when he bought it... paid for it's first fill up

The only thing I got with the car (apart from the car) was an ashtray full of ciggie butts.
