The Aston Martin Valkyrie is the latest hypercar to join the elite list of vehicles costing a lot to buy, and even more to service.
The Valkyrie takes this to new heights, though.
Because for the cash you need to service it, you can literally buy another supercar.

Like any other self-respecting seven-figure hypercar, the Aston Martin Valkyrie costs hundreds of thousands of dollars to service.
Production is limited to 175 units, with 150 road cars and 25 track-only variants.
Per Bloomberg, each of these 175 lucky buyers will reportedly spend around $464,000 in servicing costs over the course of the first three years.
The first service comes at 600 miles or after six months, whichever comes first, and it costs £25,000 – or $33,000.
Then you’ve got another after 12 months / 3,100 miles, which will cost the owner $111,000, and then another after two years or 6,200 miles.
This one is even pricier, setting you back an estimated $196,000.
The last scheduled service is scheduled after 36 months or 9,300 miles – and it costs $124,000.
Supercars are always expensive to service, with the annual service cost of a Pagani Huayra Hermes Edition, for example, around $8,000.
And that’s before we mention the absurd servicing costs of the Bugatti Chiron.
The tires alone cost around $50,000.
An oil change, which is required every 14 months or 10,000 miles, will set you back a hair under $25,000.
And then there’s the truly mind-blowing and expensive part.
There’s a long list of components that Bugatti says need replacing every four years.
It’s a very long list, and it also includes the fuel tank.
Well, this particular service costs $210,000.
You can buy a house for that.
