Yeah, a looked after engine can exhibit extremely minor wear only measurable in thou. There will still be a difference from when it left the factory, just still within original tolerances, cos it was looked after!
Ya dont get unworn or knackered though, there is a middle ground, you have to go through the middle ground to get knackered
Dont get me wrong here im not out for an argument, just respectfully discussing stuff!

Tbh modern oils arent necessarily super-oils, its all horses for courses, if you put a 0w30 C4 oil in that old volvo it'd not have been the same story, like putting 20w50 in a D4...

This is a fine example of maintenance, serviced every 8k on the dot https://youtu.be/Wk-isKUjWBQ
