Hi All, Been toying with the idea of buying a low mileage 2006-2008 3.0 litre Alphard as a partial replacement for our ageing Subaru Outback - I know that many of these vehicles have had a previously cosseted lifestyle, but given that those in my range are already 15 or 16 years old what should be a realistic future life expectancy based on other owner experiences here? (I'm thinking about degradation of anything rubber such as fuel/brake lines/suspension parts, breakdown of plastic components, bodywork corrosion etc). Don't want to be spending £10-11k for potentially only a few years of use.
