Magic odometer moments
Discussion
No matching of time, trip or any other display, but the S212 E250 CDi i bought for £4,500 in February with 175,000 miles on the clock specifically for a twice weekly schlep from Sussex to tthe midlands (a work project) has hit 200k! Only unavoidable costs in that time have been 2 tyres and a service. It’s averaged 44mpg (calculated) and used no oil. The next service due in 8k miles, and I’ll have 4 cross climates fitted in the next couple of weeks. I have also voluntarily had the wheels refurbished to smarted it up a bit!

202,020,2.0,2.0My unwritten rules are:
Odometer = starting point
Trip meter = next challenge
Onboard computer = are you tough enough?
Odometer = 202020 = bronze
Plus
Trip meter = 2.0 = silver
Plus
Range / average MPG etc = 20 miles = gold
Order of merit of the odometer, supreme lifetime achievement knighthood award (GT4 class) to you.
Such dedication.
And here was I regretting not capturing the petrol pumps the other day when I noticed someone (someone special) opposite me put £77.77 in,
ON PUMP 7!
I pulled out my smartphone but the quasi-fascist kiosk police shouted loudly at me to stop over the suppression tannoy.
If they had had tasers, and use of such tasers wouldn't have caused Sainsburys Carlisle to explode, I think they would have zapped me.
Anyhow, I'm zoning in on 55,555 in my car, obvs will take the day off to catch it at 5.55.
Hopefully get this playing on the stereo too:
