Evoque Budget

Hi Guys,

I'm newbie to the forum and also will be to the Range Rover Evoque once I get my one

Firstly I would like to say Big Thank You to the people of the forum as it has been very informative and i have learnt so much about the Evoque by reading people's experiences and reviews.

I went for my first test drive the other day, it was on a petrol one and what a experience, loved it so much .

I have been shopping around for few weeks now but haven't found what i wanted as my budget is tight. I'm looking buy a SD4 2012 Evoque with < 10,000km, with the following option Tech pack, Metallic paint, Panoramic roof, Power tailgate, Front sensor & Rear camera, HDD navigation, Rear air vents and my budget is <$70k.

I'm currently putting a budget plan together and I was hoping people in this forum can help me with the budgeting for the car.

I have come with some monthly figues:

NSW Stamp Duty $238
Car Rego $43
Car Insurance $167
Car Finance $1100
Car Servicing $130
Car Fuel $250
Car Grooming $100

So it looks like i need about $2000 per month to run this car? Is this correct?

Car grooming?

Looks to be about $500 too high by my calcs.

Nrma insurance = $90 for example.
Admittedly our fuel bill will be closer to $70 but we only do 15000km a year on average.

Thanks for the response Filski, I was just trying to be funny abt the car grooming I was trying to say Car washes ....ok $1500 falls within the budget....but all my research says it fall between $1500 to $2000 depending on the use of the car...still bit unsure
