Leaked out?
Did you check the oil levels often?
Been used up by the engine due to a fault. Has it been smoky?
Did it overheat when it lost power?

Not many people check oil any more, a friend of mine hasn't opened his bonnet since he got the car two years ago
Wow, I check mine at least weekly. Well all fluids actually and tyre pressures.
Whatever happened to preventative maintenance?
Cars are so reliable these days people dont check and dont change oils as they should so turbos blow and heads get the rattles.
Modern engines would last twice as long if oils were changed regularlyI do mine twice a year but will admit to not checking oil weekly because it doesn't use any.

I own a Land Rover, I check the engine oil level, coolant and PAS fluid at least weekly because... she's a Land Rover! There's no evidence of leaky diffs or transmission. Well there is some, but not enough to drip on the floor

Does that mean that you haven't changed it in that time either
obviously not if he has never even checked the levels in all that time.
