Lucky you. I'd say you're the exception and not the rule though; Mine's never come back from servicing with a bill for less than a grand.

They are obviously one of the greatest drivers cars ever made, but if you buy one thinking they are 'cheap as chips to run', you are in for a big shock IMO.

I think you should have bought a good one,

Mine was a one owner 40 k miles car when I bought it,

Sold it as 2 owner 57k miles,

Totally mint,

Total depreciation cast me about 5k in 4 years.

Cheap as chips.

Congratulations. Polar Silver manual C4 here. Superb colour, superb car.

BTW mine has not been particularly cheap to run, but not because of essential maintainence, but morso becasue I am fastidious about keeping it in A1 condition.

Enjoy, one of the best driving experiences out there.
