My Ka (1999 reg) has just ticked over the 60,000 mile point. I was wondering if anyone knows if a Ka can actually manage a full 100,000 and whether or not i'm going to have to look for a new motor soon? redface

One in our fleet, getting on for 200K miles. Currently awaiting major surgery ! the rust will get it before the engine goes I reckon.

I can imagine! Rust on mine is good at the moment so I'm positive that it'll push the 100k mark! Not sure about 200k though!

One past through my hands a few years back 127K with a full service history. It ran fine the only tell-tale was a worn steering wheel.
