1400 insurance + 500 servicing + 5000 depreciation (worst case) + 2800 fuel + 12 x 520 for my hp and another 800 tyres etc. over 20K miles as about 84p a mile. could be a lot worse though, boxster S was coming in at around 120p a mile last tile I looked in autoexpress.

Mine is coming in at 7p per mile this includes all costs and book depreciation. It does include paint sprayers work and all consumables but not the Zaino
