Unscheduled repairs$1,053

What breaks between services — an estimate by vehicle age (20 years old) and a brand-tier multiplier (budget-reliable/mainstream/premium/exotic) for Mercedes-Benz. Averaged across good years and bad — most years cost less than this, and an occasional big-ticket failure costs a lot more. This listing's 119,725km is well below the ~240,000km expected for its age, so the estimate is scaled down 10%.

Total annual running cost$7,554
