every 10 years or 100,000 miles?

which ever comes first?

mines done 58,000 and was thinking of doing mine, 2002 plate.

Every 68,000 miles iirc.

I would get it done around 50,000 though as its not uncommon for them to snap between 50k and 70k.

I think it's 8 years/ 70k miles in the book?

I'd definitely have it done before that. 50k/ 5 years imo, whatever comes first.

Thanks. The car I'm going to look at is on 90 000, I'll take it as due unless its had one recently.

[Manu]

5 years / 60.000 for peace of mind

Youre a bit far from manchester though. Is that about what I would expect to pay anywhere? Does anywhere come recomended near me?
