Grade 'A' block and pistons!
I reckon mine must be grade'D', (+ or - 1/2" ), although it doesn't use much oil, just small top ups at 4k, and about 8.5k, then none needed, just had 1st service at 11k.

My S has used about 2.5l in 7500 miles, the HSE about 1.5 ltrs in 8700 miles. Both TDV6 Autos. Both had the free "inspection" at 2000 miles but no idea if any added then.
