Which I suppose is why the literature plug change intervals are listed as 30,000 miles:
Maintenance every 30,000 miles/48,000 km
Replace spark plugs
Air filter: Replace filter element
Change engine oil and oil filter

The service intervals apply under normal driving conditions. However, we strongly recommend that you check the air filter every 15,000 miles/24,000 km and if necessary, have it replaced. (Fuel filter replacement is recommended every 60,000 miles/96,000 km).
And we get cars in the shop regularly that are more than 10 years old, and with less than 20K miles on them..........
