Default Engine Oil top ups (thing of the past maybe?)

My dads old Hillman Minx ended up using almost as much oil as petrol!

Just chatting with a neighbour about engine oils (as you do) and

to show what oil had been used. It used to be helpful back then - I would
think even more now with synthetics, semi-synthetics and mineral oils in
use. Has anyone seen this recently?


Never. I may have been lucky, but I've never had a car that really
required a top-up between oil changes. (First car a 1972 Escort.)
