Character,
Out of interest, what does the car 'feel' like? I realise that's quite subjective. Mine at 45K feels no different to the new loaners I've had - I look after mine, and I mean that genuinely.
I'd be interested to know how far it felt from being a new car (squeaks, rattles, moving fittings etc)?
Thanks,
John2020 SDV6 D5 HSE, Carpathian Grey +
2022 Tesla Model Y LR... almost Carpathian Grey
Previously : 2005 TDV6 SE Auto, Cairns Blue (288K) - ours for 16 years
This beats the highest mileage vehicle (car) that i have seen in my motor trade days.
One of the guys here took out his calculator and worked out an average of around £48k worth of fuel used in it's life TLO has left the building.......

money well spent and with that mileage I can see why the message centre says what it says

Hi CW,
What does the message centre say? Your eyesight is, apparently, better than mine.

Feels just like new, runs a treat, keep him up together, has a few holes on the centre dash for ex-highways kit, cant be bothered to have em filled, replaced the drivers seat cover wat the same time as the seat base was replaced under warranty.
Only issue is two door dents on the n/s and o/s rear doors from opening their doors in Sainsburys and Tesco's..... "every little helps!!"
