Just when I think I'm catching Tom, he updates his mileage again!

Although I'm the only person with 2 Skodas in the list!

(Not that it's a competition or anything ...)

:rofl:

Likewise with WrightyRS... :mad: :P

I'm off to Cornwall for a week in dads car, so that will set me back a bit. :(

Don't really think it counts but my 53 passat tdi had 115k when i traded it in a few weeks back for my fabia.

Well,my 2001 Octavia Elegance TDi now has 134,000 on the clock and is still (fingers crossed) fine and dandy.The only real issue with mine so far has been replacement of the VNT unit on the Turbo.

My neighbour owns a 2003 VW Passat TDi 130 which has done 240,000 miles trouble free.He has clocked up this intergalactic mileage doing daily airport runs as he works for a private hire firm.

just a silly little thing really ...

but it seems to fit best in here

On holiday the other week

Just been through and updated the list somewhat. :)

Just been through and updated the list somewhat. :)

Dammit Tom, everytime I update my mileage and move up the list, you update it and move me back down! :rolleyes::D

my works van now has 157,000

used o own a mitsi colt r reg 1.3 had 140,000 when i sold it and in all the years i had it only needed a set of ht leads. sold this about 2 years ago and saw it the other day in town:)

also my brother had a h reg oyota think it was a celica or something i had owned it before him and my mum before him. it had done 190,000 nothing wrong with it but my brother had got his first house and could not afford to run a car!!!

140,000 r reg 1.3 mitsi colt - vrswhite

190,000 h reg toyota family saloon thingy - vrswhite

p.s really miss the R reg Colt i think it was the most underated car of all time:(

82k - 1999/T Felicia 1.6 SLXI

(was 63k when I got it one year ago)

Previously 112k - 1997/P Felicia 1.3 GLI

(was 47k when I got it in 2003, had it 3 years)

Previously 95k 1992/J Citroen AX 1.1 TGE

(was 46k when I got it in 2001, had it 21 months)

Had a lot of trouble with the Citroen, including oil leaks, stalling, fluctuating idling speed and some muppet failing to fit brake pads properly, which let to the brakes failing completely (managed to stop safely with gears and handbrake). Should have got rid at the first sign of trouble. The two Felicias have been more reliable, a fair amount spend on usual wear and tear replacements, but then they were both cheaper than what I could have bought.

Ought to try to wean myself off the habit of running up high mileages in older cars.

A regular customer of ours has a Taxi that has done 235,000 miles, he keeps it so well that it puts cars with 1/10th of that mileage to shame.

There's a firm in Southport who run Octavias, some of them are well in to 600000, and I think one is over 700000!!!!!!

03 Octavia VRS estate with 122,500 miles of which 1500 approx is with the new genuine exchange engine and turbo I have just fitted. Reason for failure, estimated 40K without an oil change. I think the person selling it the chap I bought it off reset the service indicator as it failed with 500 miles left to go. The oil filter was completely covered in rust and it was a genuine 2 year VAG filter. I work on VAG cars day in day out and I have never seen one of those filters go rusty all over.

The missus and I managed to get a 1989 (F) Volvo 360 GLT up to 130,000k before finally part ex-ing for the grand sum of £50.

thanks to Jonny5ive for getting my lanicia back in there :) the second highest milelage car I have owned, and was genuinley sorry to see it go, wish I could have saved it :(
