Man of Honour
You all have too much time on your hands to even work this out. I feel like you should be concentrating on something else...
There's an app for that!

When apps and smart phones first appeared I couldn't help but say "there's a t*at for that" because someone would whip out an app for every situation .There's an app for that!
No idea of per mile. I paid £2600 for my 07 plate Auris. I've had it for 5.5years now and 44k miles i have driven.
Depreciation - No idea
Fuel £8000
Insurance £3000
Tax £1400
Servicing £1200
MOTs £175
Tyres £750
Major/minor work (Clutch etc etc) - £500
This is actually quite a difficult measure to be comparative on. On some cars, people covering a very high mileage will have a disproportionately low cost per mile - even if the car is unreliable the sheer quantity of miles will result in a low cost per mile figure. Other people may opt to buy a brand new but ordinary care to drive very infrequently, this will give them a very high cost per mile. However if they did the same mileage as the unreliable car owner, or the unreliable car owner did the same mileage as them, the pictures would look quite different.
But anyway, I'll have a go.
Including Depreciation, Fuel, Warranty, Servicing and Tyres my 2015 530d, which I've owned for 5 years from 12 months old, works out at pretty much 50p a mile.
Which is actually quite weird, as both my previous 530d and my E39 530i both ended up averaging out at the same - 48p for the 2010 530d, 52p for the E39 530i.
For the Mini, which we bought new... 35p a mile.
Including the full cost of the car that is ~40ppm for the full 44k.
73p a mile without any depreciation for a C63
I suppose it's mostly fuel for that engine
10p is road tax. I feel that pain
Do more miles then it's cheaper per mile.I think I've probably over estimated fuel there but its not going to be too far away. I didn't think everything else was too bad to be fair. 3 main dealer services (2 minor, 1 major). Tyres have been amazing. The rears could easily be done every 5000 miles. No brake pads/discs and no major issues. Running without warranty too and insurance is very good given that I'm in Stoke!
This is the one bit that really ****** me off!
Petrol £ 120 per year (Only use my car on the weekends)
Insurance £ 164 per year
Servicing £ 252 per year (Main dealer)
You spend £120 a YEAR on petrol yet double that on servicing?!
Yeah main dealer servicing ain’t cheap but I like it. It has to be done every year regardless of miles driven.
