[Healeys] Oil Change Frequency

[Oudesluys]

I could be mistaken ,but I think there are some cars requireing an oil 
change every 30.000km or even more.
Before I retired a couple of years ago I drove between 20.000 and 
35.000miles a year in a lot of stop and go traffic. Still I always 
change(d) oil only once a year. Always passed the annual MOT incl. 
emission test. Mostly put 300.000 plus miles on a car, but never have 
had a worn engine. usually the bodywork gave up.
