I like the look of tarmac, but how durable is it, compared to
concrete?

More durable if anything; tarmac is slightly flexible - concrete cracks.
See www.pavingexpert.com (or .co.uk ? - offline so can't check)


But it doesn't like having petrol or oil spilt on it, and it can be
too soft to support things like heavily loaded axle stands for any
length of time.
