Hi everyone,
Newbie here considering a Granturismo (amongst a few other things). Just wondered what the realistic running costs are like for these from owners that actually run them? I’d probably be looking at a pre-2013 car either 4.7s (with sports pack) or the Mc Shift. Been looking on autotrader and getting a bit scared seeing some of pictures of invoices showing £4K, there’s even a lovely looking 4.7s with a reported service costing £6k, with previous services at £4K and £3k. That is serious expense for a 5 year old car with 32,000 miles on the clock. Assume some of those involved discs and pads but are they really this expensive to run? It’s an auto so doesn’t even have the clutch costs in there. My annual mileage would be around 8k a year so nothing massive.
Are these prices the norm or are they rare? Understand it’s not going to be a cheap car to run and would happily put £3k aside a year but some of those costs are pretty wallet melting!
Thanks
