Whilst looking around for cars Ive seen a few cheap phase 2 cars,are they still expensive to repair/maintain?, is the ETM / DMF still expensive to sort?

They can be depending on failures but normal servicing costs like cambelt changes etc are relatively cheap. (I think)

ETM is a lot cheaper that it used to be. DMF - I am not sure. Mine lasted till 155K.

I read somewhere today that it could be done for sub 200 for the etm, is this true?.

Not sure - I had mine replaced when they were still expensive. 2nd hand units are cheaper.
I thought the main issue with the phase 2 is the diabolical turning circle.

Past 2004, etm, dim and other electrical gremlins were fixed. Dmf will cost you circa 500 quid. Other than that, they're bloody great

On my S60 I've just changed oil/air/pollen/fuel filters, engine and gearbox oil, polybushed front lower control arms and had 4 wheel alignment adjusted. I used genuine parts and fitted it all myself so no labour there and all costed £230. I think that's pretty reasonable for a full service. My cambelt has already been changed but they're only ~£100 for a genuine kit. Only thing I think is expensive that will fail if it hasn't been done already is the alarm siren module. £160.

I think barring a sudden influx of cash that allows me to buy a ph2 V70R I'll be giving the whole Ph2 thing a miss for the time being, they're still out of my price range while I have sod all money.
