But thats great - $600 for a timing belt. Gotta be happy with that. I'm a bit worried about the H6's. Much pricier to service. Thankfully my 100K is done, but I've seen some receipts on other H6's and the amounts spend are jaw dropping.
Aren't the H6 a timing chain?? (I really have no idea)
Breakdown of the cost of my 100,000k service:
Timing belt $75
Oil $20
Filter $10
Plugs $20
Air Filter $15
Labour $0
TOTAL $140

Merc E-Class with Carlsson bits and pieces. (Carlsson is like Brabus...a tuning company for Mercs)
Its at my uni and is driven by a student from China. A lot of the international students drive very nice cars because compared to where they come from, its so cheap to buy a car in Australia hence so they splash out and get themselves something nice for the couple of years they're in the country studying.
Yup H6's are a chain so don't have to be replaced. But when I was looking to buy H6's a few months ago, I saw some incredibly expensive receipts. The highest being $3700. True story. Something must've been wrong with that one though...Aren't the H6 a timing chain?? (I really have no idea)

Not suprised.
Paying for Subaru stuff is like being anally fisted.
Cost me over $90 for a fuel filter and two cans of UEC.
Genuine fuel filter for my Commo is arount 15 bucks.

FUCK.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
Meet the shock star of the 2010 Paris motor show. This is the Jaguar C-X75 – a jet-powered supercar concept with scarcely believable levels of technology and power.
‘Designed as a range-extended electric two-seater supercar, it explores the outer limits of both performance and sustainability’, says Jaguar. The performance aspect is taken care of quite nicely by a 968bhp maximum power output, while the ability to go zero emissions in electric mode (for 68 miles) and recharge the batteries with efficient micro gas turbines caters for the sustainability aspect. Average CO2 emissions of 28g/km are particularly startling.
That power figure is twinned with 1180lb ft of torque, and helps hustle the 1350kg C-X75 to 62mph in 3.4sec and to 100mph in a staggering 5.5sec, while the quarter-mile sprint is rattled off in 10.3sec. Top speed is 205mph.
It’s about the same length as a Jaguar XKR sports coupe, but is 130mm wider and 118mm lower, its supercar styling ultimately much more dramatic. Jaguar claims influences of Jaguar D-Type and XJ13 in its design, though it does so without looking needlessly retro. It’s a thoroughly modern design, with Jaguar claiming it’s a vision of a 2020-vintage supercar.
Much of that vision comes from the way it’s propelled. Each wheel gets its own 195bhp electric motor (so effectively the C-X75 is all-wheel drive, and it gets clever torque-vectoring technology too) while two gas turbines provide 94bhp each. Those either top up the batteries that power the electric motors or, during harder driving, provide extra power in order to hit those awe-inspiring performance figures. The turbines can rev up to 80,000rpm – around ten times the figure provided by most performance cars.
A pretty impressive car, then, and one grabbing much of the attention at Paris. Is it your star of the show, though? Click here to see its competition and make your mind up.
