Re: Whats your mileage?

99k on an '02 twink....engine isn't exactly perfect though

The old twink ('99) had 120k(ish) on it and was sweet as a nut...didn't use any oil either! The suspension was getting a bit wobbly on the back when i sold it though...

Re: Whats your mileage?

156 2.4JTD, 2001 on an 02 plate (import), just passed 84K and going in for new front wisbones tomorrow. Only had servicing, tyres and a new undertray up to now, aside from the cambelt failure last year. I also replaced the nasty oxidized wing mirror brackets.

Re: Whats your mileage?

166 '99 2.5v6 with 113000, still going lovely, just one electrical niggle, had front wishbones top and bottom done at 85k and thats about it, might need a front end respray though due to stone chips, getting quite bad, just trying to decide if worth it and how much longer I'll keep her.

Re: Whats your mileage?

About 230,000 miles (last time I looked) on a 1990 164 V6. Smokes a bit when I boot it and sometimes the button to zero the trip odometer doesn't work...

...not sure I'd buy another one...!

(Top that BMW!)

Was just poking my head round the door and thought I'd chip in with you boys! Besides, no one want to know how many miles we've done in the 156 forum
