costs

[gav]

hi can anyone tell me what the tax is for a wr1 a year and the running costs

£215 per year currently (until the govt. changes the year and tax band)

You'll get between 200-250miles per tank... less if you drive harder. Costs about £60 to fill the tank (at current prices).

The rest of the running costs depend on how you drive. You may get 10k out of a set of tyres which will cost you £200-250 per corner (if you shop around you'll probably get them a lot cheaper but I wouldn't go for a cheap brand)

If you are on a tight budget, this probably isn't the car for you! Unless you plan on keeping it in a garage and hardly driving it ?

Tyres - £200-£250 per corner

I think you might have got this confused. I pay £100 per Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3's 225/40/18... But I don't get 10k miles out of them... Probably around 8k miles.

Servicing and Insurance are £££'s factors as well.........but worth every penny for the permanent grin youll find yourself wearing being the owner of a 1

I'll just put my orthopaedics on...
