Ownership costs of a V12V
Hey guys. I am looking into trading in my 997 Turbo for a 2011-2012 V12V. Would really appreciate if you could give me an idea of maintenance costs. I will not be using it as a daily driver, most likely putting a few thousand miles a year. Thanks!

The gas mileage is about 12MPG average city driving - insurance is about $1000 more for each 6 months compared to my V8 vantage (I have a spotless record). other than that, nothing stands out as more expensive than a vantage V8 after 3 years with a V12S vs. more years owning V8 Vantages.

I've not had to spend much more than the the annual service ($1600-$2000) on mine. I own a 2011 V12. Only real consumables have been tires and a new battery in the 6.5 years of ownership.

I think reliability is pretty good on Aston's, though most people don't put many miles on them so who really knows. I had a 996TT and that was very reliable. Parts are way more for Aston's and there aren't many people who work on them so my bet is labor costs more also, though I try to do everything I can myself. Gotta pay to play I guess.
