Ok reading this thread has got my sensible head working over time

I'm looking at getting a v6 in next few weeks and haven't even thought about running costs at length.

I've had insurance quotes and it's quite high cos only got 1 yr ncd but how much is a yrs tax and what sort of mpg can I expect to get??

Tax is ?245 for ones registered before 55 plate and you should get 20 something mpg mixed driving.

Over the winter with short runs to work I was getting less than 15mpg.

This time of year going out I will get low to mid twentys but boy do I love it.

When I say I cant aford to run it, I should have said I cant aford to run my non paying free loading brother in law to work and back every day.

Ive took mine of the road for a bit so he finds his own transport, Or to fit all new brakes and exhaust cats and mani's.
