The '84 280e euro has 141,000 miles with a freshened motor (my dedicated autocrosser).

The 82 300cd has about 195,000 with a freshened motor and a recent stickshift organ transplant.

The 83 240/3000d na has over 300K with a pretty fresh motor, the stick tranny and a 307 rear diff.

The 03 dodge truck with cummins and six manual has 84K.

And my Mrs.'s pitiful POS pt cruiser has about 55K on it.

I'm assuming that that is the reply to the earlier quesiton, "How much did you pay for it?"

If so, and still pulling strong, I can't say as I'd complain!

For my mileage, as with most, look at the signature!
I also ride a Honda CBR1100XX at ~14,000 but that's just a baby...

253,000 and running fine. Bought it 3.5 years ago with 193K. Done the upper front suspension, all steering rods, GPs, batt, shocks, new radiator, tires. Not bad. Averages 29-30, got 30-32 on the old fuel.

My sig. should be accurate. My 240D is stopped at i think 262K for the winter for storage and runs like a champ. My Inifiniti is at 53K which i'm pissed about cause i've put 11K on it in the 5 months i have owned it, but guess thats part of working downtown and living in the burbs :-)
