give me all the costs.

wrong forum .needs to be moved.
car maintance is not super expensive espically when you find the right mechanic but there are other costs that makes it terribly expensive.

car insurance here depends on your number of yrs driving and not claiming and the type of car and engine size.

for instance a driver of 1 year who buys a 2.0l engine will pay about £2200 in insurance a year alone.if you claim or the car is classified as sport then it can easily double.
a driver of 1 yr not claiming ,parking the car in a garage at night with 1.4l engine car will be about £900.

you have to keep the car in good condition espically near MoT check.if it fails the check then you cannot use the car on the road.this is done yearly and test itself cost £41.
road disc is about £120 per year,depending again.

petrol is about £1.25 per litre.

if you live in london and wish to drive to the centre you also must pay a charge(forgot how much as its been a while since i drove to london).

it depends on what car. Break down

1: Car insurance. depends on the level you take from fully comprehensive to 3rd party, which could be from £2000 to £500. All depending on the car

2: Road Tax .  Again depends on the car, buit typically £200 - 300

3: MOT.  Typically about £50
4; Servicing. Depends on the car but a full servuces would set you back about £600
5: Fuel. Petrol or desiel is very expensive in the UK. If you use your car regularly, you shoud expect to pay about £35 per week. That is about £140 per month. That figure could change drastically if you take your car to work

So I guess a figure of £3500  - £12000. all depends on make and mode of car as well as usage.

Hope this helps

hmm thats very costly for servicing though it depends on the car and what needs to be done i expect.full service +mot at renault cost me £129 just last month though the car is only 5 yrs old so needed nothing really but oil change in the end.
