Concur. I figure that I've got off lightly with my car so far (this might be
something to do with the PO having spent over GBP4000 in the six months that
he owned it) but over the last two years it has cost me some GBP2000 (GBP600
so far this month) on parts - not counting plugs, filters, oil and other
consumable type components. It still requires 5 215/50 15 tyres and the
wheels refurbushing - oh, and a respray wouldn't go amiss either....
