 Its normal for black cabs fitted with Nissan engines to do well over one million miles on one engine.

The best thing is what the van has cost me since I've had it. Apart from annual servicing, the only things it has had done are: 5 new tyres,1 set of brake pads and shoes, 3 timing belts (changed every 40,000 as recommended) and an exhaust. It has never used any oil or water and starts first time even after weeks of lay up.

As long as the van is reliable, the mileage will not bother me and I intend keeping her for as long as possible.


 

If only everything in life was a reliable as a volkswagon

1999 escort td has just been round the clock, no problems with it but the regular service intervals mean that it can be pricey to maintain
