I sold my 300tdi 3 years ago with 380k miles on the clock and I still see it around. I bought it at 120k miles. Fully agree that service intervals of 5000 miles keep the oil fresher and make the maths easier! Fixing the inevitable leaks as soon as they occur is important. Had my injector pump optimised by a real expert and I'm sure that the smoother power delivery given by this mod helped with longevity.

Must say that yours looks great Thumbs Up Just because you're offended doesn't mean you're right.

Buy on condition, I have had loads of 300tdi Defenders, the first I did 120k in just over 3 years, I have had them with 200k plus and just putting a chassis in a 96 which I will be keeping for ever, check it out well and buy the best you can find as plenty are for sale. PS we have loads of 300's and TD5's which are outlasting the engines in the TDCi range!
