How much to maintain a 360 modena a year?

Anyone know the servicing/intervals for a 360 modena. Roughly how much a year it would cost to maintain.

Yeah ive heard the cant afford two cant afford one saying. Doesnt really help much unfortunately because I would like to know accurate figures per year to see if it would be realistic.

I hope eyedot drops in, or I may have to ring up a local dealer.

I beg to differ

Kanes, so with a 360 spyder say, is it likely to be more or less than the f355?

Anyway, as the saying goes, if you have to worry about scrimping on the service costs, you can't afford one. This you trying to persuade your dad to get one Gurdas?

We saw a F355 on the way home and were wondering how much it would cost to maintain. I asked dad about a 360 and says hes a bit too old for it and would prefer a DB7, which leaves a spot for a young only son

the 360s cost a lot more than the older 355;s

simply as the Cam Belts need replacing every 6-10000 on the new 360s (they replaced the older chain ones, with new rubber ones... the older ones went for ages... ask yourself why they would want to put in new ones which need replacing so often!)

355 will cost on average £3k a yr to run..

360.. I looked into serving costs a while back, but they have dropped now, at the time i was quoted £8k a yr..

now it seems to have dropped. all depending on how many miles you do, and if you go official or not..

That used to cost £5k.. but they dropped it a lot

Very informative mate, cheers for that.

stay away from DB7, I looked at one before the 911, and they suck.

Stunning on the outside, ok on inside, but break lots..

spoke to a few owners, who arent 'chuffed'

one told me he had one for 7 weeks, brand new, it needed £11k of warranty work doing and was off the road most of the time, he refused the car in the end and got a 3200GT instead.

Thats not good. He wouldnt want a Porsche either because he feels he is to old for the car, what other car is there really? SL55?

Well by the time my dad is in the situation to by a "fun" car, he will have a S500L, so a CL is too similar. SL would be a good one. Hes just told me that he would like to get an Etype and restore it.
