Our costs(for our previous 2.5,150hp Renault based Chausson)were approx.
VED-£165 (as over 3500kg)..
Insurance-approx. £300-350...
Base vehicle service/maintenance- Ranged from £250+ (simple(ish) service), to £850+ (when including the likes of a cam belt change and/or brake discs etc etc).
Habitation service/damp check- Approx only £100 as we ended up having a mobile "engineer" do ours.
MPG- Hovered around the mid-high 20s (..although would easily drop well into the mid-low teens when pressing on )
So as others have said, not too bad and the service side is maybe not too dissimilar to medium-large family car (but a MH is usually "as well as", not "instead of").
Of cause, the more it's used, the less it seems to cost..
Just to add, if looking at an A class, check out the costs and as importantly, the availability of the windscreens and check how much 'screen cover you'd get when looking at insurance...
