are you watching me

To put things into an understandable way you can equate 1 hours running to 60 miles on a car, so 1000 hours equates to 60,000 mile

Depends on the age of the machine i guess

so a 1999 machine with 2400 hrs would be pretty good then ?

Sounds pretty high for a small diesel engine depends how it has been maintained thou

Shouldnt the answer be more dependant upon make/model of machine:confused1:

All depends if its been looked after, serviced etc.

 

Cars on 80k can run like dogs if they are not looked after, same as cars with 200k on can run sweet as a nut if they are.
