Wow ... now I don't feel like I can brag about my 364,000-mile 240D, much less my 263,000-mile 87 300D. Very impressive!

Both of my dad's cars qualify....his '82 300SD has 321k on it with original trans, but not original engine. (original blew a ring or something around 313k...we swapped it out....still ran, but burned oil/smoked like heck, and had hardly any power)

His '83 300SD has 307k or so.....original engine AND trans....not sure if the trans has ever been rebuilt. This year we did a 2.47 swap on it too, so its a great cruiser.

My '82 300SD will be approaching 300k quickly.....as I drive about 81 miles a day for work.....and I am at 285,364 right now......so I should reach 300k around next July or August! The people at work will think I am insane. I have the oldest car BY FAR of anyone.....oldest car in the lot is probably a '99 or newer....

not even half way there yet... my odo broke at 122k a few years ago and i have not fixed it yet... cant be past 124k by now

HOW TRUE! I was excited when I was driving Milo who's now up around 220,000....well on his way to 300K. But now that may daily driver is Otis (daughter has Milo for next two years), with only 85,000 miles, I somehow feel like I'm back at the beginning of the race!

My last, (and probably best) Mercedes-Benz diesel was an '83 300SD with 305K miles on-the-clock, when I replaced it as my daily-driver, and bought an E300TD new, in '99. It sold in one week parked in front of my home for full asking - $4,950.00. Most everything worked on it - cruise, A/C, moonroof, all lights, instrument cluster-tach, etc. no rust either......great car.

with my 1987 190D, it has 309k about to hit 310k. I had a 1980 240D with 715k on it and i loved that car.

My 81 240d has about 390k on it and is driven almost daily along with the 84 300TD that has 311k! My 86 F350 4x4 with the 6.9 just turned 300k 2 weeks ago. Seems like it would be time to update my fleet, but if it ain't broke why fix it!!

350,869 on the clock as of today. We're starting to get a little hard to start in the cold Also at idle, blue smoke. Drive away and the smoke disappears. Original engine and trans!

316k on the 83 turbo 123 with vented floorpans aka rust holes aka swiss cheese style.it runs and starts and drives though,even on the highway, dont take it past 70mph though....no sir

I am in now. Owned since 12/05. Original engine and Transmission.



This photo from September, btw the Passat in pic also hit 300K in December

Let me toss my hat in the ring too. Bought '83 SD last sping and it had 310K on the clock. Odo was (and is) non functional. No idea how long it has been broken. Starts, runs, and drives great. Looks good too.
