Maintenance Cost per Mile: Here's Mine, What's Yours?
Bought the 92 with 138,000 miles six years ago, now have 218,000 miles. Over those 80,000 miles I have spent $15,722 (shhhh, don't tell my wife), or 19.7 cents per mile. Higher than I would like, but oh well.
This includes everything other than fuel. Other than changing my oil, air filter, light bulbs, and power steering fluid, I don't do my own work. Labor rate ranges from 75-100/hr. I am often able to buy the parts from buymbparts, so that helps some. Hoping to do better with my recently-acquired 91, but we'll see. What have you found to be the cost per mile with yours?
