'85 300TD Rolls Over (Odometer)
1985 300TD, Federal Version
The odometer hit a milestone 300,000 miles  !See the attached photos. Bought the car with 116,000 miles for $9,900 13 years ago. Worth every penny  It's been old faithful for years and years - never left us stranded, never been towed since we owned it. Driven non-stop numerous times from Jersey to Florida loaded to the gills with luggage.Drivetrain is totally original, no oil added between changes, timing chain replaced at 218k mi as a precaution.

I'm only 52,740 behind!
I replaced my timing chain at 213k due to some minor stretch and I was paranoid. I am also rooting for 300k, I need to drive more....I am currently at about 15-18k a year....so about 2.5-3 years till I hit the big 300k! My dad will likely hit it in less than 1.5 years at his current rate of nearly 400 miles per WEEK of driving.
