Last MINI oil service cost £0 and I got a free cup of coffee
Next one will be £0 and the few after that.

Of course this isn't ideal for everyone because it does mean you have to drive a MINI

Tyres aren't cheap either :/

Jesus!! What size tyres are they?

Tyres were one of the few things that I never worried about on my Elise. £250 for a set and they'd last 15k+ miles

All relative though a Dude, I bet that's not even a weeks wages to you, More like a Days pay
That would kill me that would, I'd buy 3 motors for that amount & sell them all on for Profit
