Running costs - 360 Spider vs Gallardo vs 997 Turbo

[turboguru]

Hi Lads,

I currently drive a 360 Spider which I love and tomorrow I am borrowing a new 997 Turbo from Porsche for a few days to try it out having had a turbo before. A car that really tempts me is Gallardo as I have seen some around £80,000 now and that's one hell of a car for the money. My question is - Which of the 3 cars will cost the most to run per year? say doing 8k miles per year max.

I very much doubt I will sell my 360 Spider as I love her too much it's just more out of interest than anything else.

Cheers

Can not answer on the deprecation , but strongly suspect the Porker will be the cheapest on running costs by a long way.

Porsche will be cheapest.

Then I would hazard a guess at 360 being next most, then Gallardo the most depending on clutch issues etc.

Porsche Reading lent it too me as I bought my old Turbo through them plus a few other cars over the years. I have to say having done 200 miles in it today it's a great car but lacks any real soul
