Going backwards or in a mirror?

[JustinF]

probably one for the slightly more observant and/or childish

Actually showed 100,000 on October 12th,appropriately on a Euro road trip.
Car has been over 100K for ages but 2 Speedo changes kept losing miles showing.

Have you seen the Mondeo in the previous couple of pages that's done 200k MORE than your Volvo?!

I thought you were more of a just popping to the shops on a Sunday type person. I could have guessed a Volvo though.

That's the work car. Honda S2000 and Celica WRC GTfour are for fun...

Shopping on a Sunday? How very dare you? Are you suggesting I'm a pleb?

I thought that's what Volvo people with their sundays, I'm rather wrong, your cars a brilliant. My 65 plate E Class is nearing 50k miles, I have a little way to go to get back in the 100k club, I am looking to replace it though, the, erm, Volvo S90 has caught my eye. .

My BMW 630i has 130k on the clock and is used every day for a 180 mile round trip commute. I see no reason why it won't easily double its current mileage.

Nor do I. Set aside a few bob for suspension and brake parts, a clutch and maybe a gearbox, and it will get there easily. Taxi drivers have been running cars north of 300k miles for over 20 years now.

Noble M12 on 99k and fabia vrs on 149k both still on original clutches.I expect I will have to give away the noble with this mileage.

[98elise]

Fiesta 1.4, bought for £1350 18 months ago with 66k on the clock.

Now has 110k on the clock. Had new clutch at 85k, has had a couple wheel bearings, a handbrake cable, and a gear shift cable.

Older pic, but I'd parked up in the garage, glanced down and to my surprise..

[Sy1441]

2013 Mercedes C200.

Got it May 2015 with 42k on the clock.



Goes back in March when my new A6 should hopefully arrive.

[Matt Novak]

Maserati Granturismo, daily driver. Currently 82k! Will report back in 18 months when it should hit 100k.

Your fuel bill must be terrifying.

[schmalex]

It's not so bad to be honest. I've averaged 28.8mpg over the last 30,000 miles. It returns 32mpg when sitting on the motorway at 80 / 85 with cruise on.

I guess it's offset by not spending £450 / £500 a month on a lease / PCP / loan repayment...Insurqnce is peanuts at £200ish / year and I reckon I've spent less than £300 on non-routine repairs over the last 2 years (I had to replace a snapped drivers side spring about 18 months ago and that's it)
