How does a two year old car do that many miles? Has it ever stopped?

For a two year old car to do that it means it's been driven over 500 miles per day, 7 days a week. At an average of roughly 40mph means it's been running around 12 hours per day, every day.

Does anyone bother their **** to read the description

It was used by a coach company to move drivers around, that's the reason for the ridiculously high mileage.

Factor in down time for servicing, maybe some waiting for parts, tyre changes and re-fueling and it get's even scarier.

As it says motorway miles... well it would have to be... I'd be inclined to up the average speed... still a hell of a lot of time on the road.
