My car has only just ticked over 10,000 miles and I bought it in October 2019!

Just a couple of holidays and other away days since then due to the pandemic and illness in my family, no commute to speak of and it's pretty ridiculous just how little I've travelled since then.

It's amazing how little oil car engines use these days, I was always having to top up my cars engine oil in the eighties.

Diesel or petrol? Must be a well built and serviced vehicle.

Diesel .....and honestly I know nothing about cars ......they have a flappy thing at the front and a flappy thing at the back ......you lift the back one up to put your shopping  away .....if you lift front one  it is noisy so I dont do that

I had a Toyota Hiace diesel van once that I got to 325k miles, after I sold it it must've done another 100k, had it serviced regularly and hardly any issues with it, it was absolutely bullet proof.
Sadly the new Toyota vans are nowhere near as good and if you get 150k out of them without any major issues you do really well.

Been up to the 150K mark on a couple of occasions but 250K is some going.... but then again for a Volvo it's probably nothing much at all
