Am I a light sleeper or a heavy sleeper? Well that depends on how much I've had to drink...

I've been unlucky recently with mine.

The Diplomat went over 155,555 a few months ago and I didn't notice, the CD hatch went over 111,111 miles sometime last week and my Dad didn't notice, and today I just missed this on the CD auto on the way to Billing:

This was my speedo (Astra mk2 GTE Digi Dash), on the 19th February 2014...

It is now showing 254,400 miles.

You seem confident about that... I have every reason to believe it will if I look after it.

Might with a couple of oversized rebuilds, you won't get that out of a 4 cylinder vauxhall petrol engine otherwise. The oil pump will fail long before then taking out the cam housing.

we've driven 150 miles today........
the heater went cold last Thursday........
they check the level when it's serviced don't they?"

Depends what life the engines had. If it's done nothing but motorway miles then will do loads but not half a million miles, 300,000 absolutely max on an orginal engine
