All the costs are right Alex but maybe you would be better getting something older to practice on regularly 1st like a mk1 Max or TKM where you could buy the entire kit for under Ł1000 BUT the important thing is if its looked after will still be worth roughly the same when you come to sell it on. Unlike if you bought a 2010 kart and sold it in a year or twos time.

Dont forget all the other extras like helmet and you will need a way of transporting it such as trailer, estate car or van.

Once you have the equipment to go for full days testing is relatively cheap (under Ł50 usually) plus some fuel and will give you the maximum time in the seat plus mechanical knowledge. Its the same with tyres. Buying second hand are massively cheaper and if you are just getting used to the driving it would be a waste buying new sets all the time.
