So, my way of driving my C30 has resulted in...

NOTHING!

Now with more than 115.000 miles it is still on it's first clutch, it's first exhaust (though the back pot needs a replacement), first transmission (though I think a new one wouldn't go a miss! ) and it's first drive shafts.

My economy is still well better than that claimed by Volvo (I can use one tank fill of petrol for 2 weeks, even though I drive about 740 km (about 465 miles) in that period and it is still smooth (though not as smooth as the Jag ) and chirpy. It get's it's top speed sorted quickly and goes faster than it should.

Not a speck of rust on her and I've had her now more than 6 years... I guess I'll never part with her - unless of course some dumb erm turd takes my right of way...
