A Fair Few ZS180's For Sale..............
 
On Piston Heads website, never seen so many! However if you are one of those fortunate ones in the minority who are actually looking to purchase one, then this is the place to be looking. Some well priced examples going and some silly ones too. A few familiar ones to be found as well.

Would love one but they just seem so more expensive to run.

How much more would it cost to run one over a year compared to a 120?

arwilson80 16-04-08 01:59 PM

For me a 180 costs:

- £60+/week fuel (250 miles upwards) - so minimum of £3000
- £800/yr Insurance (3PP, 26, N.Ireland, 4yr NCB)
- £500 (or so)/yr Maintenance (4 new tyres, oil/filter change every 6-7.5k miles, book service)
- £210/yr VED (Road tax)

That's about it i think, so the total is about £4500/yr. :)

From that you should be able to work out the difference in cost.

My 180 costs:

- £40+/week fuel (250 miles upwards) - so minimum of £2080
- £666.67/yr Insurance (FC, 25, Hampshire, 7yr NCB)
- £500 (or so)/yr Maintenance (4 new tyres, oil/filter change every 6-7.5k miles, book service)
- £210/yr VED (Road tax) - Soon to be £410 ish.

That's about it i think, so the total is about £3456.67/yr for me. :D

There's something not right about it though. I just put the VRM into webuyanycar.com and they said :

Your valuation details
webuyanycar.com will buy your car for £4,775 (subject to inspection)

Either it's hooky, or we should all chip in, buy it then pass it on for a 1K profit ..... :pirate2:
