Well... I have done nearly 53K miles, so I guess its classed as 'not normal' in their calculations 
Though due to the high mileage, its not going to suffer silly EGR faults and will have all the weaker suspension components replaced under warranty ready for a new owner in a year and a half... better than having a three year old D3 with said components ready to fail just as it gets out of warranty.

ARB bushes, track rod ends, steering components, wheel bearings... steering wander and clunks are fairly common on high mileage D3's.
Its a very heavy vehicle and most of the longer term owners here have had some if not all replaced over time.
Nothing to worry about though TBH if you are a low mileage owner, just get them all check prior to your three years running out by a good dealer or a good independent like Offroad Essentials (10forcash).

weird, in March this year WBAC quoted £18795 for our then 25k miles 56 plate HSE, todays quote is £22300 with 32K miles on it - cool, so by next year based on those figures, we should be looking at around £26000 for it with 39k miles
