At the rate of wear now on the Fiesta tires (originals at 30k @25%) it will be another 7 years before they are bald. One of those years I start worrying about it when they are at 75%, twice as much as they have already gone or about 90k miles total before replacement.

Proper ecodriving means a lot of parts last a lot longer. Transmission gets a lot more shifting in neutral than it is supposed to, but that is more clutch actuation wear and less gear to gear friction, probably a wash.

My VX had at least 65% of the original brake pads at 62k miles on the originals.
