McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I agree about oil & filter changes I had a Manta GT/E that eventually started to get a timing chain rattle at 120,000 miles due to tensioner travel  issues. I had to take the cylinder head off to remove the front timing cover - almost everything I checked on the head, the bores etc was within manufacturers tollerances - I had owned it for most of it's life being a stickler for oil changes every 5k miles or 12 months. Never used cheap oil unless it was fully synthetic. Likewise I sold my Mk2 Carlton 2.0CDi at 190k miles - it never had a camshaft or chain replaced - my brother had it off me befor parting with it at a tad over 250k miles. Body work eventually rotted out.
