PH High Milers Club.

[The Riddler]

So, Who has the highest mileage car on PH.

I know I won't be near the top, but interested to know how many others run high mileage cars.

188280 is mine on the Audi.

[bdr529]

My dad has a Volvo 440 with 192K on it.
Highest mileage I have is 140K on a BMW E30.

[wolf1]

My A6 has got 218,000 miles on it. My Transit has 178,000 miles on it but it's had replacement clocks at some stage so I believe it's more.

Thought the title was mile high club... Anyway before I got rid of it, the prelude (mk3) had 147,000 miles, so barely run in compared to some here I would imagine.

On that mileage the engine ran as new and managed a quarter mile at Santa pod with the same time and speed as when it was tested by autocar in 1990, shame about the cancer rust.

Our 6 year old Polo is about to click over 140k, still running sweet and looks like a 2 year old car.

Funny how high miles puts a lot of people off, some of the most money I have spent on cars was between 60-100k miles, I have had 3 cars over 130k and all 3 have cost peanuts to run, and I sold them for not a lot less than I paid for them - high miler bangornomics

[no-worries88]

27000 miles
highest ive had i believe is the Evo,thats at 70,000+.



But its also written off on a trailer at the bottom of the garden....

[pmanson]

Sold our MX5 a couple of months ago with 191k miles on it.

Still going strong and now owned by another PHer.

[DaveL485]

Had dealings with a Renault 21 Turbo at 282,000

[sunbeam_alpine]

1986 Daihatsu Fourtrak - 478K

My OH's MGBGT has 73,000 miles on it. I know it doesn't sound much, but it's been past 99,999 twice already!

So it's been clocked

[Rollcage]

Got a Corsa Diesel (X reg) that has 220k on it, and a Mondeo TDCi with 260k on it. Having just purchased the Mondeo, I am going to hang on to the Corsa for a couple of weeks until the Mondeo proves itself ok.

About 10 years ago I had an E32 730i that had about 450k on it - it was difficult to know exactly how many as the odometer stops at 299999 for some reason. Not bad for a petrol engined car!

It shows the expectations of MG when it was built, they probably never expected anyone to do more than 100,000 miles!

[ALawson]

My ATR is on 163k.

[PeteG]

Makes my 176k Octavia vRS look positively amateur!

Though I was driving a V6 Omega with about 240k on the clock the other week.

[king arthur]

157k here. Highest mileage I've owned would be one of the vans, that I bought at 100k and took to 180k in 8 months.

[GTO Scott]

Just bought a W124 E220 with 219,500 miles on the clock

[205jsy]

I sold my e34 with 217,000 on the clock.

[gamefreaks]

My V70 has 206,000 miles on it now.

Still going strong though.

[Krise]

I put 125k in 18 months onto the ST before I got rid of that, tiny compared to some on here !!
