Hadn’t planned the trip, just reset with every full tank. Got all the 4’s including .4 out by pure chance (not kicking myself, honestbiggrin)

8 km out of magic moment (222,222 km).

Messed up badly, it completely slipped my mind and I haven't been able to eat or sleep.

A lesson learned in kilometers passing by far quicker than miles.

Oh well, bring on 333,333.

Only safe place to stop. Could have done with a few more yards to get the last 3 in line

Unfortunately no 8th gear. And not even at 8k rpm either.

Strong post. Boxster too, or is that 996?

I've had my 330d for nearly ten years, so I've seen a few milestones, unfortunately I cannot find the 100k shot anywhere. Owned the car since 94k, now on 207k.







Recently re-MOTd after eight months off the road, so I'm looking forward to driving it again even though I now have 335d as well.

Many, many years ago my dad had a 330d from new in 2003, one of the earliest 204bhp models, and it was a 6 speed manual. Was a good although with 123456 miles you missed a chance to have the trip computer as 789.0 miles winkhehe

Mine is a 204bhp 6-speed manual as well and the engine has been rock solid to be fair to it. I think part of the reason I'm looking forward to driving it again (even though it isn't the best manual box) is because the autobox in the 335d sometimes makes some odd choices, but I'll get that serviced next year and see if it makes a difference to how it behaves!

From what I gather they are really rare (6sp manual 330d). Nice cars. He got rid in 2006, so a long time ago!
