87 SDL 315,000 miles. original engine & trans
shifts perfect, doesn't burn engine oil,,,, but like my HD, she marks her spot.

"if it aint leaking, she's dry!"

Ditto, except mine just turned 280,000 last night.

Its been awhile, mileages have most certainly gone up. UPDATES??? Who has the highest mileage driveable car on this fourm?

I had a friend in Seattle who had an 84 300D (he bought it new) that went (chassis and engine, with one engine rebuild at 300k miles) 750K miles before it pooped. God I wish I had taken a pic of that odo (which amazingly worked perfectly the entire 750K miles) before the car went to the scrap yard. Ahhh the days before the widespread use of digital cameras...
