Fuel estimates
Assume 1100km per month, and a mileage of 9.2L per 100km. That's 92L per month, and assume a price of about $2.20/L at worst.
That's about $225/mon for petrol, round up to $240/mon to give some slack in budgeting.
Servicing pricing
This is a fixed-cost deal with a nice schedule of expected servicing costs.
Assume we drive about 10,000km per year, and service yearly, which is extremely neat.
