It's horrific! Granted if your potterin along...which sometimes you do on the motorway, you'll see 30mpg! I take a picture just to prove it's possible.
But idealy you have to give it a bit of stick then its megA on fuel!
Do i care...Do i fu ck! It's worth every penny and then some!

If your only going to use it at weekends it won't sting you as much as you think it might. I use mine mainly on weekends & sometimes after work.
Petrol is one of the main expenses with one, you can get high 20's to the gallon though.
Servicing isn't overly expensive, apart from if it needed a camblet etc.

Not something i have to worry about! Done before i bought mine!
Only thing thats expensive is the amount of car shampoo i'm going through! lol
Can you really care about runnin costs when they look this good...(Even if i say so myself)
V6 255, 172's, JCW,
Just had my 24k service done.. £265.24 Not too bad i'd say!
They're not a hugh amount more to maintain really. Obviously tax and insurance will be more,but on the whole not too bad. They do seem to take alot more looking after though, in the way of where you park, road humps etc.
Go for it..! You'll love vee ownership!

Indeed.
What do you mean, to match the wheels. After lookin at another vee, the vents don't match anyway
And i've seen a few vee's with grey and black vents/wheels and they look horrific...Ruin'd imo.
Why shockinly? Car sticks out like a sore thumb, alot more so than the CSL...

356? 1/2 the price and not quite half as slow! Prob use about twice as much fuel tho!
Same as the cossie's mate, silly insurance and slower/worth nothin now too.

Didn't know they were that much new, my bad. But still, csl is quite a bit quicker, and csl is probs as bad as on fuel..
edit-Just checked and fecking hell that V6 drinks fuel. Close to the CSL but I wasn't expecting that lol.

CSL is a different sport to the V6 as far as speed goes
I guess if I was a random vandal, i'd more likely key the v6 than the csl

I wish mine did the book MPG figure. More like 15 around town...
Pace isn't an issue...
Indeed it does not!
100miles will cost you £20
airfilter is £90 (no joke!)
its an expensive car for an everyday runner, i used mine everyday last year between july to november (100miles a day average) i hate to think what i payed in petrol! £60 to fill it up and i think 250-300miles was the most i got
f**king awesome car, i don't care what anyone says, above 90mph its very very fast, plus its one of the most exclusive cars on the roads!
i still have mine, although i haven't driven it since november 06! (soon to change :evil

Indeed over 90 it's level peggin with an evo 7.
Having said that! From 40-130 it's close with my bro's R32 :S up a hill and him tucked behind me!
Craig, i couldn't care about the speed...We know that vee ownerships all about!
^
exactly , the majority (who comment without ever going in one or owning one) don't get that bit either
Spkin of which, when are you going to buy the superior vee!

If you have to ask you cant afford it. alot more than a 172 lets put it that way!!!
based on ??
We've already said that servicing costs & fuel will be the issue, that's about it.

how much are a set of rear tyres?
255's?
255's?
Tyres, brakes everything is far more expensive than the costs of a 172!!! servicing, insurance, fuel, depreciation when puttin miles on them. what more do you need. if hes loaded then its fine.
