Mine had done 24k mile before it needed a new engine - but that was because I'd used it to learn clutchless up (and down) gear changes. It developed a nasty habit of dropping into neutral when upchanging between 2nd and 3rd - not good in the middle of an overtake :rollin you look like a right twat sitting alongside a cage with the engine revving its nuts off
