• Good luck getting through four years on a second hand car without at least one or two significant maintenance bills.

  • Yeah that's not unreasonable, it depends on the age and history of the car though - I was shitting myself thinking the Passat I bought would need a timing belt at 60k but a lot of the VW stuff has long life servicing now and it won't need one for nearly double that.

    I guess you do have to factor in things going wrong - we needed to replace the rear pads in it after my wife driving it for a year, to which the service manager asked me "Who is she, Ken Block?"
