Most Expensive Cars To Repair
 
Not a real surprise, but here's some highlights from the article.


Benjamin Franklin once said that the only things certain in life are death and taxes. Had he been born a couple centuries later, he definitely would have included car repairs in that statement.

At the top of our list of the most expensive luxury vehicles to repair are the Audi A8 and Mercedes-Benz G Class, both with five-year estimated repair costs of $1,640 US. Rounding out the luxury vehicles in the top five are the Jaguar XK,at $1,629 US; Land Rover Range Rover, at $1,600 US; and Mercedes-Benz CL Class, at $1,540 US.

Workhorse vehicles powered by turbocharged diesel engines also require more skill to repair their complex mechanical systems designed for pulling and towing heavy loads. The super-duty Ford F450 has a five-year estimated repair cost of $1,295 US. Other large trucks such as the Dodge Ram 3500 and the Chevrolet Silverado 3500 clocked in at $1,282 US and $1,094 US, respectively, for their five-year repair costs.

Also on our list of the most expensive non-luxury cars to repair are the Hummer H2, at $1,484 US; Hummer H3, at $1,244 US; Ford Mustang, at $1,201 US; Mini Cooper Convertible, at $1,093 US; Subaru Impreza, at $1,006 US; and GMC Yukon and Chrysler Pacifica, at $970 US eac
