Tyres will wear, so will brakes, you'll have to put fuel in.
I think the worst job is a camchain replacement. Otherwise, not bad really.

Que the 'but but the turbo is the best one all the others aren't good'.....

Just answered your pm.

Main thing is the cam chain if it is noisy walk away as it is expensive to replace.
