Yours look a sight tidier than mine does. :oops:
Are you treating it to a new set of mats to celebrate, (it appears to have spat one out)?

Very impressed!!

My 110 HDI just went over 120,000 the over day. I was on my way home with my daughter and had 1 mile left to get home and the clocks read 119,994..... So had to take a little drive just so I could see it flick to 120,000.....I know I am sad :lol:

Mine has been serviced every 9-10,000 miles from new till 100,000 miles then a full service carried out every 3-4,000 miles since using Quartz 9000 fully synth oil. I do this for a peace of mind as want her to last!!

I have allways used quartz7000 semi (iam a cheapskate compared to you ) every 7-8 k so yours should live forever!! i allways use pug parts too..except bottom pulleys as they were very expensive and didnt last long.
