How Much Does Your Old Car Cost You?
Your car may be your pride and joy and over the years it has managed to get you from A to B, but have you thought about just how much it might be costing you every year?
Expenses
The first expenses you may think of are the insurance, the tax and of course the fuel prices! But what about any breakdown cover that you may shell out for, or the interest on a loan you may have taken out to cover the cost of paying for the car? Services, repairs, motoring fines, possibly even renting a garage, there are many little extra costs for your car that really tally up when you think about it.
If you are wondering how much your car may be costing you with all these ‘little’ expenses, take a look at this calculator, just put in the relevant information about your self and your vehicle and you will be shocked at just how much it could be!
Sell your car to us.
We filled out the calculator for an old, small car like a Ford Fiesta with just basic breakdown cover, a low insurance, doing average mileage. It calculated that a car like that would be costing its owner over £3,000 a year to run! And that’s not even counting any parking fines, finance deals or any other ‘extras’. That’s a huge amount of cash that you could be paying out every year.
Did you know that by scrapping your old car, you could be in line for a decent amount of money? Why not enjoy a payout from someone else’s wallet for a change!
