I have exactly the same car and colour with 66k on it and I intend it to be my daily driver for the next ten years! All set up to my liking and I don’t care what I spend on it as it will always be cheaper over all than an up to the minute bore box!
Don’t let them sit around, they don’t like it!

My 53 reg CDTI is my daily drive, and I intend it to be, road idiots permitting, my daily for some years yet. It's on 93k, nothing for a diesel, it's a wonderful drive too.

A daily drive for many more years if you keep the rust demon away from the underside.

My 54 plate Tourer diesel auto has been my daily driver since August 2009, and I still love it, but although I do check the plenums, it did get flooded recently (cannot understand how), and i have lost faith in it. Still started regularly, but I have been using the ZT V6, and have also recently bought another diesel auto, but a saloon. Shall have to thin out at some stage, as I still have my V6 Contemporary and Chatsworth monogram Zt diesel auto.
