For your privately owned, end-user refillable bottles, you are legally required to have them tested every 10 years, note the word Tested, not changed.
 
This contentious point raises its head periodically, it seems refillable bottle retailers don't as a rule offer testing.
It would be useful if you could post a link to the relevant legislation to help clarify the situation, or indeed to the source of your information.

Had this one sixteen years and that figure includes the repairs, averaged over the years.

[Later] though on reflection, there are quite a few non-garage repairs I didn't include. Perhaps £1k per year might be nearer the mark.

Nothing as much as like the loss of interest on the capital tied up.
