regular servicing and not giving the car death everywhere will help prolong the engines life :)

I seen a 2.0 in my local scrappy, that had been retired due to massive and I do mean massive rear end damage (the car sort of stopped  about a foot behind the drivers seat, everything was flat!) that had 398K on the clock.....

Not sure if it was the original engine, but wow!
