Scaled from the NZ average comprehensive premium ($1,311/year) against this listing's $29,990 price.

Unscheduled repairs$650

What breaks between services — an estimate by vehicle age (71 years old) and a brand-tier multiplier (budget-reliable/mainstream/premium/exotic) for Lewis. Averaged across good years and bad — most years cost less than this, and an occasional big-ticket failure costs a lot more.
