Hey there,
I was just curious....How many miles are on your car?
Also, What do you think the average mileage is on a diesel mercedes? and What is the highest mileage one youve seen?
I think stating the model of the car will help.

Right now ive got a 97 c230 with 139,000miles
and a 1980 300td with 213,885miles

Hi

Check out my signature below.

odometer stopped counting, so I'm guessing 200K. Currently reads 189,9xx.

1984 300TD

277,777 as of 5 minutes ago.......

About 264,750 on mine when I parked here at school a few hours ago....

My dad's is at 291,200 ish.

Our 300D is at 222,800 roughly.

I have put close to 58,000 on mine since I got it 4 years and 3 months ago...

My dad has put about 44,000 on his since he got it 3 years 2 months ago.....

And we've put about 2,300 miles on the 300D since we got it in February. (It was parked/not driven up till August...)

Looking forward to 300K on mine!

We'll be taking my dad's car on a big road trip soon....maybe to CA!! So that will put around 3k on it....

Its a beautiful thing to see a car go over 200K, even more for 300K, but what about those 4 and 500K cars, I know there out there.

421k miles.



I bought it at 408k about a year ago.

OM602. All original. It's only had a head gasket at 380k (so the PO says)

See sig for my rides. The guy I bought the 300 from had an '81 300SD that was well into the 300,000s.

I know this doesn't count, but I used to drive an old Freightliner with a 3176 Cat in it that had 847,000 miles.
