Hate to admit it but I have achieved the higher figure!
Up till now, I have changed my cars every 3 years when the warranty has run out.
This V90 I have kept for 5 without any problems.
With that in mind, your suggestion makes a lot of sense.
Hopefully we will still be able to afford and source diesel in the years to come.
If not, I will park it on the lawn in the front garden with a notice to read "This Is What Real Cars Used To Look Like"
