High mileage 124 diesel

This 200D is part of the "mileage millionaires" collection at the MB Museum in Germany. It has 1.86 million km (1,115,750 miles) on it, but what's most impressive is how 1.78 million km was covered on the ORIGINAL engine.

IMO, this is more impressive than the blue 240D taxi from Greece with 4.6 million km on it. Keep in mind that car had the engine overhauled 11 times.

I've calculated that I'll hit 1,000,000 miles in about 18 years at my current rate (about 35K per year). The car will make it, not so sure about me.
