i got into an SD taxi in germany that had over 500000 k on the clock. it did have vacuum problems though as the driver had to let off the acc. pedal to shift.
i gave a knowing smile at that, lol.
from what i understand a lot of taxis in germany never get turned off.. when one driver's shift is finished the next driver just jumps in the running vehicle...
