My mothers 2004 Hyundai Sonata has 46K miles, my fathers 2005 Mazda 6 has about 55K on the odo, the Pilot has about 30K on it, and the TL has.... somewhere in the neighborhood of 15K.


The highest mileage car my family has owned in recent memory was an '86 Corolla with about 300K! It was hit around 2004....
 
my brother's and soon to be my '97 Chrysler Sebring has 143,000 miles on it. my mom's '04 Mercury Mountaineer, before she was hit head on by a drunk driver, had around 55,000 miles and my dad's '04 Dodge Ram 1500 has somewhere around 40,000 miles.
 
You betcha! Although it has had said 3 trannys and 2 alternators But still the same engine and all parts in it!

sorry for such a huge picture :P
 
I remember when Dad lost his last job back in about 93/94 and we bought a Golf with 500 thousand miles on it:D Dad's Altea had about 68,000 miles on it at the moment, bought in October 05. I think it's up to 70k now infact.
 
*smirk* someone actually remembers me?

I took a count of accumulated miles on my then circa 10 vehicles...1 million miles total BEFORE i drove a foot.
 
Just gone past the magical 88888 milestone. I noticed i was getting close at 88883 and made a mental note to remember my camera next time i was out in the car - but then forgotted it :guilty:

1993 Lexus LS 400
234,000km
Pertinent service record: timing belt replacement, (many) oil changes, battery needed to be replaced somewhat often.
Was stored from 2003-2006 and driven infrequently thereafter.
Never had a single serious or expensive problem, in spite of owning a full-sized luxury sedan. Only problem I have with it is its kerb weight and somewhat short drive gears yield some relatively poor fuel economy :)
 
Update as of yesterday (I'm not driving on my one day off!) 241,655 miles. I'm almost getting sad that I'm going to get another daily driver and the Camaro will sit for a few months. :( Its rather fun to drive around town. :D
 
I drive a Mitsubishi Lancer GTS. I've got approximately 9,500 Km on it (that's about 5900 miles for the american/british people).
 
A 2004 Dodge In"tepid", my company car, that has 23K miles on it, I've had it since June 2003.
Hopefully when its up for renewal in 2006, I'll get a new 2007 Dodge Charger instead. Otherwise I'm going to have to pick between 2 different Dodge Caravans :yuck: or a Jeep Liberty Sport :crazy: What an awful choice!

My weekend toy / car I bought for the wife, is a 1995 Mazda Miata which has 62K miles on the clock.
(Its getting its 60000 mile service tomorrow $896 all-in, including replacing the timing belt and filling it with Mobil 1 oil! That's the cheapest of 3 quotes I got! The Mazda dealer service department wanted $650 just to do the timing belt swap, as well as $550 for service with synthetic oil! :ouch: )

Wow, that was a while ago! :eek:

Our Mazda now has 74,529 miles on the clock, not bad, 12000 miles in a little over 3 years, (including the 3200 miles in 2.5 weeks we did for our roadtrip vacation in Sept 2006!) no wonder she's in good shape for a '95!

My 1981 Porsche 911SC Targa shows 76,409 miles on the clock, but that's a known non-genuine mileage, a CARFAX report shows 104,000 on a previous odometer before that broke and was replaced by a used odometer showing just over 33,000 miles when installed. Realistically it's about a 150,000 mile car, which considering it's 27 years old isn't an awful lot! (Bought it in July 2007 with just over 74,000 showing)

Both the Porsche & Mazda are insured for only 5000 miles a year since they're mostly driven at weekends & holidays. 👍

That 2004 Dodge Intrepid I mentioned back in Jan '05, finally got replaced by a new company car / daily driver, in October of 2007, with a little over 57,000 on the clock. It's replacement, a 2008 Chrysler Sebring Touring Sedan :yuck: has 4893 miles on it in just under 4 months!
 
Congrats, what's the car?

Update: I'm closing in on 242,000 miles, I've got 40 or so miles to go. :D
 
The EM1 is catching you! I've had it for two months now and have put over 6,000 miles on it. Now it's up to 136,000, which is a lot, but this engine feels and sounds better than the Sol's engine. But that might be because I tore the Sol's engine a new ass hole. :lol:
