Congratulations! I doubt the poor tired old engine in my SDL will be kicking at 310/500K, but I'm sure gonna try!

Nice! Congrats! I just got my 500K badge right before I started restoring my car so I barely had any chance to drive with it on. Looking forward to having it back on the road and starting to work toward the next badge.

Not sure why they do 312K instead of 310 ... the wait for that extra 2k felt like forever!

I'm putting tires on my 87 300D tomorrow and getting it ready to drive so I can park and work on the wagon. So it could be a bit now before I get my badge
