Thumbs up Reached 100K!! :=) W124

Wow, I have never been so happy in putting so many miles on a car ... Reached 100K last night, took pics of the odometer at that perfect moment, it was almost as exciting as your first born ... The 100,000 were a little crooked at first as they rolled over, but once they gained strength, they all aligned perfectly.... Too bad it was night time, but the pics should be OK on the digital ... LOL

I have put since May 04, when I bought the car with 82K, 18K! I drive more than I imagined, yet happy, can't wait to 200K... LOL...

My 300E was nicely broken in by that mileage. At 277,000 miles it still runs like a nicely broken in engine.

Take care of it and you will see MANY more miles from it.

Good luck,
Change oil hot and change oil often.

100,000 miles

I have 125,000 plus on my 300E. I too captured the moment on digital pics.
Was a great experience watching the odometer take the 100,000 mile roll.
Looking forward to the next 100K.

I think I got like 50K or more to go b4 I can get one of those badges, or do they start at 100K.

I agree, oil changes, maintainance.... ... hmm, better get that oil changed soon .. she deserves some fresh oil to celebrate, I'll take the beer .

Wow, you guys have a lot of miles

I'll tell you what... it feels being the one that reached the 100K, vs having bought it with 100K already...

240,887 miles. When was the last time you serviced your transmission? These cars have a 30,000 mile service interval on them. It's relatively cheap and worth the peace of mind. High mileage badges start at 155,000 miles (250,000 km).
