Just check it regularly and top it up whenever it needs it.

Cheers bud, I knew they used oil just didn`t know how much, I thought 1 litre in 500 ish miles was loads so I was a bit worried but Ive recently found out is normal, thanx for the reply, mind is now at rest  :Thumbs-up

I probably would have said 1ltr per 1000 miles would be normal, BUT it really does depend on how hard you are driving her.
