Spread the cost

> VIA EMAIL

I enjoyed Tim Pollard’s comparison of three generations of Audi A8 (Our Cars, February 2019). However, until then I had been pretty sure that the two A8s I have run since 2004 over a total of 276,000 miles had not cost £1,380,000 to run (per the £5 per mile quoted), but around a tenth of that.

You have me worried now. Jack Adams

Your higher mileage and longer ownership would have spread the depreciation more thinly. Our figures are at least comparable to other cars on the CAR long-term test fleet. BM
