The BMW 5 Series is revealed as Britain’s most expensive cars to maintain, say the team behind a study of the top 50 vehicles in the UK.
What Are The Most Expensive Cars To Maintain?
The average maintenance cost per year was calculated for the 50 top-selling vehicles in Britain. The final figure is the average yearly cost of ownership – adding together a service, MOT plus the average price of unexpected repairs that can come up during the year.
Perhaps surprisingly, German cars made up half of the top 10 – despite their reputation for reliability. At the top of the most expensive cars table, at an average cost of £585 per year, was the executive BMW 5 Series, followed by the Mercedes-Benz C-Class (£557) and then the Volkswagen Passat (£543).
The prices were calculated between September 2017 and September 2018 and are based on cars of up to 15 years old. They are an average cost per year that has been based on all several different cars. By using raw data from a comparison website with the official car registration statistics from the government, an average cost of ownership was calculated.
