Nahh its only just run in...

Meh!! you're catching me!!!

Old faithful is nearing 4 weeks of sitting idle :'(

Glad the Roomy is now mapped B)

Will never get why people think 100k miles is high mileage and the end of a car's life.

I part-exed my Golf TDI in 2007 for my Leon TDI, the Golf had 133k on the clock. Last I checked a couple of months ago, it was still on the MID so it must be still on the road or at least up until very recently. Obviously I dunno what milage it's on now, but it's still going somewhere and 4 years after I part-chopped it on 133k it must be pretty astronomical by now! Granted it was the 90bhp non-VNT, non-PD model, but still it's a good run for a VW TDI

Hehe ... current/disposal mileage for my parents vehicles: 193k, 198k, >250k (the first 2 are petrols, the last a non-TDi van). Only problems, other than wear-and-tear, had been bodywork (approx 20 years old), and an emissions failure. :)

Swap it for an Ibiza? ;)

My work don't do leasing so vehicles are purchased up front and have a minimum of 10 years on the fleet to make sure they pay for themselves.

Given regular maintenance we have transits on 300k and 3 series Beemers on 250k.

So I don't at all believe 100k is the end, those days are long gone, but it's still a big milestone.

Pah, you missed it by 2 miles! :rofl:

Blame Mrs Pasty

I can but assume this was at the end of her commute this morning (I doubt she'd be bothered enough to pull over just to take the picture)

If it'd been me I'd have taken the picture whilst driving ;) of course that's a joke officer :D

my vrs is running at 110,000 miles and drives like new

Depends on pastie consumption of the driver :rofl:

113k here :)

'tis gunna be odd when the mileage on the daily drive Fabia overtakes the mileage of the cheap (old) communting Ibiza!

Mine at 154,000 and far from standard :) still in one piece

Matt

Mines currently on 143,000 and still going strong (I've covered 33,000 miles in 2 years)

106k and going strong here, and i have the 100,000 picture to prove my achievements lol im sad like that getting all the 999,999 etc love it :)

126000k got it at 64000k two and a half years ago.

Only another 150,000 to go, then.
