My 2003 R53 having done just on 160,000 miles passed it's MOT again with no advisories

Infact the MOT tester was so surprised with the mileage he got one of the other machanics to have a look as well

I said the only issue it's had was to replace the power steering motor some 6 months ago

Pleased for you smile

My 05 45k MCS has just had a wheel speed sensor go. Local BM independent want £48 to fault read it, followed by £90 for the part and then Labour : £180 altogether.....

Bit keen I think frown

A few guys in the USA are reaching stratospheric mileages with their MINIs, and they still look in superb shape.

And yes, this one is in miles, posted earlier this year, so doubtless nearer 600k now... The guy is 88 years old, too!
