worked out the actual running costs for 12 months in my 6 (bearing in mond nothing broke that cost me any money - just fuel, tyres, oil, insurance brakes etc) was £1100 pcm

OUCH
Mine sits in it's own little warm room for most of the year barring a few trips to the supermarket and back for the misses,
So my cost i expect to be alot lower more like HOPE to be alot lower,
i think the most important thing is to understand that they are not cheap cars to run before you buy it
