Our white Mk1 (K plate) has now got just under 181k on it!

Still going strong but it now has a pronounced patch of oil underneath it on the drive. I wondering if I haven't quite tightened the sump plug up correctly last time I worked on it (will get it up on the stands at some point this week and have a look).

Recently, borrowed "The Loaner" from Dandy Cars, whilst mine was being serviced.

J-plate Auto with 149,000km on the clock................chassis still felt like it had just rolled out of the factory, yesterday.

Edited to say, my 2001 Mk2.5 has 53,000mls it.

Bloody hell. Did you do the work yourself? If not, how much of that £1500 was the labour if you don't mind me asking!
