I’ve recently bought a 2007 Panda 4x4 with 107k on the clock. It hasn’t got much service history but feels absolutely perfect. Only time will tell!!!

Apparently, the 1.2 Fire engine doesn’t lunch itself if the timing belt goes so, rather than shell out £200+ for a replacement, I’ll run it until it snaps and then replace it!

Coming back from Italy the other week, there were plenty of 20 year old Panda 4x4s still going up the mountain roads.

The original panda is a very different car to the modern one. In Italy they live for years and years but as with all other old fiats in the UK the rust gets to them. They started galvanizing all their cars around 1990 to stop this. The first was the fiat tipo launched in 1988.

How’s about 24,000 a year in an Aygo for 9 years

Ite gone from various oil leaks, etc etc etc to a spotless MOT.

Nothing dodgy about that at all. In no way is that worth £200 scrap.....for sale for one thousand pounds.

I've no doubt it's still in great nick.

But who on earth chooses to do that?!

I thought it was an S8 for that miles and price.

Well the link doesn't work anymore so I guess it's been sold, looked mint on the outside.

Can't remember...sure it was under 10k

There are a couple of sq5 for sale with 100k miles which are newer than that a8 and the seats look brand new. Not sure what Audi have done but their seat coverings definitely seem to hold up well. I'll go look for a sample but bear in mind they're still selling for £20 grand.

That interior looks lovely!

A slightly sporty price for those miles IMO

And it looks pretty fresh and new too right - barely even sat in?

Someone has looked after that well. Although I guess its only 3 years old despite the miles so how bad could it really look?

eBay zero rated seller from Bradford, awesome!

Not quite the same, but I ran a new car to 100,000 miles in four years and it looked great still. I suppose wear and tear can be: mileage, number of trips, time elapsed, care of the owner. A careful owner for a short amount of time performing fewer, longer trips, can equal a good car. In theory....

Coming to a forecourt near you soon with 28k and one careful lady owner

There is a chap opposite me, he had an Insignia and now a Volvo, not sure of the model, I think its an S90. They are lease cars, go back after 3 years. He treats it as well as his classic Porsche in the garage. I see him out every so often checking the oil, waxing it and so on. He does approx 100k over the period but they still look A1.

A lot of lease cars get clocked. I know someone who sells the deals. Some of his customers admit to doing it. Generally after the cars have passed inspection. They've never had a car fail inspection due to clocking. I don't think it's part of the check. It's just a visual check it seems.

I was in a brand new Mercedes E220 AMG taxi last night in WYorkshire on a 4mile/4.50 journey.

How do they make that work in such an expensive car?........………..

Rented on a 5k PA pcp/lease and clocked regularly?

More often doing airport runs for clients who expect a nicer car? (Plus the above)

[Sa Calobra]

I know! Fast forward it'll be sat in a Mercedes approved main stealer forecourt....
