£39k in 5 years on this one.

Mental on a car worth £8-10k, but a nice collection of stamps / invoices.

Doesn’t help with the appeal of these old Maz

A lot of that seems to be faffing around with the gearbox and related stuff, perhaps they were chasing a problem for a while?

Would have been cheaper just to buy one, not service it, but another 18 months later, not service that, buy another 18 months later etc etc.

Sounds right - the garage faffing around at the owners expense

I would cry if I was presented with a bill for over 6k for a clutch, tyres and service. Such a cheap card to buy but still supercar money to maintain.

I know what you mean, I’d be inconsolable!

The nearly 9yrs I’ve had my GS have cost an average of £1400 / year and that’s practically restoring it.

It can be done for sensible cost.

How many miles in that time?
