theheff Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Servicing is quite reasonable, parts like brake discs etc vary depending on which ones you pick, prices from £180 for front discs to £400+. Have a look on ebay, tarmac sportz forum on here and zmanalex forum on here for prices on different bits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MITZ@CougarStore Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Dave, pricing is very reasonable on parts and servicing, have a look on our site for pricing on parts - http://www.cougarstore.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewan221 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 My cars previous owner kept every recipt and invoice. He owned car for almost 5 years ( 30,000 miles) and spent £3500 in servicing and repairs. This was all main dealer prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMT Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Find a specialist, cheaper than main dealer and more than likely better service. Tyres mid-range for a decent set of rears around £300ish, but you can spend a lot more than that. Fuel wise if its an every day runner like me, you'll be spending a fair old amount. Budget at least £250 per month (30mile a day to work and going to friends/social stuff etc), I spend around £300odds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amstrange1 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 What do people think in general to overall maintenance/running costs? Ws thinking of a boxster but prices put me off regarding spares etc. I went through exactly the same thought process, and bought the 350Z for the same reason. Servicing at Nissan is reasonable, as are the parts prices - and there's decent support from specialists for discounts on parts and labour.
