Its a European sports car for starters. But yes - repairing some of these can be very costly. For example I had a former housemate who owned an older Mercedes C class with a power sunroof. One day the sunroof failed to close. He took it in and it turned out the whole thing needed to be replaced at a cost of over $3,500. Still another person I knew owned a BMW 5 Series. One day one of the headlights stopped working. The fix was over $1,500 because a small ECU module had failed.
Another example: Audi Allroads. In order to work on most of the engine you have to remove the entire front clip of the car. So in many cases it's the cost of labor that adds up because many of these cars are not easy to service.
