Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

    NRMA Running Costs Calculator

    Saw this on the news tonight:
    http://www.mynrma.com.au/mynrma/operating-costs-calculator.aspx


    so thought I would have a look.

    Call me crazy but it seems to be a straight Fuel + insurance over five years + purchase price divided out to give a weekly number, although there may be a small number in there for maintenance too...

    So of course when you 100% depreciate a car over 5 years a more expensive car has a far higher "weekly" costs Thank you captain obvious.

    If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

    It is that simple. But I suppose it gives people an approximate amount their vehicle may cost to run.

      So the cheapest option is to buy a 1975 Toyota Carolla...

        It costs me to put petrol in it. I'm happy with that. I don't care how much it costs, because it's not electric.
