Probably been posted before, but who's got the highest mileage ?
Like to drive mine all year round, hence quite proud of the 33k on the clock.
Yep it's on it's second time round (133k).
Roar on.

110 for me. (and counting, although most of the miles recently have been done with the back end in the air).

Mine has 68K on the clock, but not the original engine (according to its block number) so who knows ??

I would love to drive mine more often !

I wonder how many wedges are completely original nowadays ?

Sorry cant compete with you lot but I have used mine as my daily driver for the last 12 months and racked up 6000 miles of trouble free motoring. It is going back into my garage for the winter though as it is not a winter car as heaters are poo and wiper not much better but I do love it.

Hmm - my heater is great and the wiper works - get them fixed!

Try backflushing the heater matrix. Try Rain-X on the screen.

My biggest gripe in the winter is demisting when I leave work but that's soon sorted with some hot water on the screen.

I think the last time i looked Poppy had 75,000..(Odd)...I think just over 5,000 of that is in the last year of my ownership..They are no good locked up in garages..I had a "Time to reflect" moment today whilst i sat in the park on my own..(Sad i know)..The amount of positive comments from people as i sat away from my P&J reminds me why i love my Wedge...And love driving it...The sun then came out...Thanks Trevor.... smile

mine is about as original as they come, I like to keep it that way, despite the urge of trying to improve it.

120K on my '87 390SE. Although the engine has only done 19K since rebuild in 2001.

75k odd. I bought it 10 years ago with 60,000 on the clock. Pretty shameful if i do say so myself.
