xc90 d5 exec 2009 4400 miles - this pathetic mileage makes me feel so inadequate ...
But I am hoping it lasts as long as the others here, cos I cant afford to replace it ... EVER (had a mad moment when I bought it)

02 s60 d5 210.000 miles
replaced turbo due to low quality oil used once, air-con compressor and alternator clutch pulley. It will need new rear springs and shock absorbers and to identify where does it the whoosh is coming from when I press the throttle. Quite difficult to spot because there is no black smoke and only on the run, when standing quite difficult to identify.

Thinking to upgrade it to a newer d5 s60 or s80, but heard that the fuel consumption is 20% worse, so I will keep the car till is gone die :P.
