Highest Odometer Reading On A Car You Have Owned.

[KETURBO25]

My dads got a mitsubishi express ute that he drives everyday, its been

towing big loads on a heavy trailor for as long as i can remember.

 

It boasts over 620000kms and it drives so good! He takes care of it,

but when i was 17, me and my mates would cain the f@$k out of

that ute to the point where it over heated during burnouts everytime

i drove it, obviously i have more respect for his cars now.....

well i've only got a 100,000 mile speedo and I know for sure that it's been around the clock 15 times so that means I win at 2.2 million!

 

I will PM postal address to send me prizes and stuff.

You win a Hyclone to save you gas on the next 2.2million...

i'd had to think how much fuel has been put into that car, even if its a rolla thats still gonna be freakin heaps.

with the CAT truck motors you can send the back to cat and they will rebuild it and warrenty it for like another 500000kms not bad

I would like to own a car to craploads of kilometres... I always sell them long before it happens though

 

Maybe I can do it with Larry the Laser. I have a long way to go though, he has only travelled 115,xxx in the first 25 years of his life :P

I had a 78 VB SL/E Commodore with the small 253 V8.

When I sold it it had 726000 on the clock, on all original mechanicals.

I bought it off a mate who's family purchased the thing new. The engine copped a flogging from me and never missed a beat.

Although it didn't blow any oil, it did leak from just about every orifice around the engine. That's why the engine lasted, it was getting fresh oil almost every week.

The trimatic didn't have reverse (so I didn't park anywhere nose down, simple), and on occasions 2nd would take the day off too, but it kept going.

I neglected it, abused it and I dead set loved it. God I miss that car.

[bmxsexmonkey]

had a VS wags commo :blush: 350xxx never missed a beat. ever...

had it for 1 year and sold it for the same amount i payed stoked apart from the $726378 i probably spent on petrol
