Default 106,000 miles

Just approaching next service and will be discussing with the garage (Chippenham, who have been looking afer the car recently) what extra might need attention at this mileage.. but would appreciate any views on sensible precautionary steps for longevity!

Any thoughts ? - it feels as good as it did 2 years ago !

Might see some of you at the Red Lion on 1 July..

I take it you bought the car 2 years ago?
How many miles did it have on it when you bought it?

No i got the car 1 week ago - it belonged to a mate from new and he has been kind enough to let me enjoy the car now and then for the past 2 years or so.

The mileage has built up fairly consistantly over the past 4 years at the rate of 25k/yr - mostly motorway (!) no track some enthusiastic 'B' roads...
