Suspicions confirmed

If I needed convincing that the beemer was expensive to maintain the proof was in the pre-purchase inspection.

That's nearly 3 grand in shit. Couple that with another $2000 for new front brake rotors a year or so back, and an average of $5-600 per service times 6 services, plus that's my third set of rear pads (and I barely use the rear brake). The rear tyre pressure sensor occasionally goes off (displays _ _) and got progressively worse after the service guys "Fixed" it at last service.

Oh and their price for fitting a front Heidenau is near double what I pay.

That's nearly 10 grand in running costs in 73,000km And i'm not even including the 3 or 4 sets of tyres because they're a given.

On average my fatty costs me $50-$80 to service and in 45,000km I'm still on original brake rotors and my second set of pads (that cost me $150)

I know I'm making the right decision. Bring on the Fatness
