Assumptions

Spending record

This is bigger ticket stuff, not regular consumables like petrol and tolls.

2016-12-16	Major service	$1845	included 5-yearly timing belt change, about a $700-800 job
2017-02-26	GIO comprehensive	$1328	covered for $19,500 with $850 excess
2017-03-22	NRMA Classic Care	$110	roadside assistance
2017-05-21	New battery	$250	replaces original Alfa battery
2017-05-21	New H7 headlight bulbs	$95	price is for a pair, one blew, wanted to ensure matching brightness and colour temp
2017-08-18	2x new rear tyres	$528	rear left was unacceptably worn, replaced both sides for evenness, cost covers Pirelli P1 225/40/18, fitting, balancing, disposal
2017-08-18	Replace front brakes	$344.30	third-party Brembo set, basically the same as OEM but without Alfa branding, cost covers parts and fitting
2017-08-18	Brake disc machining	$66	discs machined to even the surface and eliminate squealing
2018-04-28	NRMA Classic Care	$110	roadside assistance
2018-05-06	H7 headlight bulbs	$120	Only comes as a pair, replaced both so I could try the 4300K Whitevision bulbs, now I have one spare of the old type
2018-08-18	Rego check (failed)	$41	Epping Motors, failed because rear tyres too worn. I bought those Pirelli P1 Cinturatos last year for my rego check so... ouch XD
2018-08-20	Rego check (passed)	$40	Jax Tyres Castle Hill, they said the rear tyres are borderline passable

Quotation and notes from Platinum Auto Service

Air filters, oil filters, brake fluid flush, all every 2yrs
Replace front wiper blades and rear refill, every 2-3 yrs
Timing belt every 4yrs
Water pump replacement
Change coolants
Tires need replacing
Oil leak on PCB valve on top of motor, see if replacement available. Would call it seepage, look at it next service
Brake pads okay but could be better fitted

Quoted for $1840

Next interval would be minor, probably rectify the pcb seepage at that time. Next service after 1 year or 10,000km.
