Mini Cooper Clubman

Looking for a Mini Cooper Clubman for sale, North Florida? Have you considered the average five year cost of owning a new, 2008, Clubman? You may be surprised by how affordable the after purchase cost really is.

There are 7 categories to consider when you are looking at a new vehicle: depreciation, fees and taxes, financing, insurance, fuel, maintenance, and repairs. So, instead of drawing this out in a year by year breakdown, Ill just show you the total after 5 years.

1. Depreciation $10,704
2. Fees and Taxes 2,551
3. Financing 3,277
4. Insurance 8,100
5. Fuel 11,553
6. Maintenance 5,132
7. Repairs 1,067

Doesn’t look affordable when you look at it all by itself, but try looking on the Internet and comparing the same costs with a new Chevy, Ford, or Honda.

If these costs aren’t up your alley, you should look for a used Mini Cooper Clubman for sale North Florida. Your cost drops by over $11,000 just by buying a car that is only one year old. Crazy isn’t it. That is the number one reason I have never bought a new car. Let some other guy lose that first years depreciation and pay the fees at the dealership. What ever car or year you buy, I hope you can find all of the enjoyment you want.
