Serviced every 12.000 miles
Keep well away from supermarket fuel
And I give it a full valet every Sunday weather permitting
People still get in and ask me if its new and can't believe its done over 200.000 miles
But it has cost me a lot to keep it on the road
DPF filter £1000
Diesel pump £1000
Injectors £1200
And so. Over £6000 in servicing and repairs last year
Trouble started once it hit 150.000
Touch wood its doing well at the moment
High mileage cars will always need repairs
I run down tank at least once a month and put in V power diesel, I give it a good clean regularly, I lubricate all round including the step, I'm surprised at the £1000 for DPF, my last E7 needed that, cost £400, good all round taxi though, it'll be sadly missed if there isn't an option to renew, £42k for an M8 and over £40k for a TX is not going to happen for me, hopefully they get the problem with conversion sorted.
