high milage and still going.

Well one and all,
Thought that I'd share this with you, last evening my little fl1 just toped the 200,000 mile mark in fact this morning it's 200.009:drum: and still going strong. they may have their faults but by god it's got me and the family out of a lot a trouble :beer2:

mines over the 100,000 and still going strong, you watch, it'll go bang now

was thinking about giving mine an overhaul at the 200k mark. It was be 70k since the last VCU by then so whilst im ringing up bell i might get a IRD and diff at the same time. New wheel bearings all round too. Maybe CV joints aswell.

Then again i might just be quietly pleased it has reached that high and treat it to some expensive diesel

I dont know if this is a modern consumerist thing or a pessimist Landrover owner thing you are showing, but rather than being thankful my car lasted 200k, I would be extremely ****ed if it DIDNT get that far.

Modern cars are good for much, much higher mileage than that.

Its not the 1970's any more, when it was a race to see whether the engine wore away to nothing or the body dissolved away to nothing first.

My 2001 TD4 ES Auto has just past 234,000 miles

How many time has yer doors fallen off when wet ?

Mines at 138k i need to change the tranny oil haha

my old one when I parted with it was on 175,000 it would have been around the 200,000 by now I have always said look after the car and it will look after you
