Who's got a High Mileage Car? 200,000+

SVreX wrote: My daily driver has 435K on it. That's nearly double most of you lightweights! I've been driving it since it had 225K. 1999 F-250 Super Duty with a 7.3L turbo diesel.

My daily is now up to 480K since this thread was started.

I'll break 500K this year.

My 99 V6 F150 is rocking on at 225000, original clutch still and the AC blows cold. Putting new valve cover gaskets and a TPS this weekend. Damn thing runs good

my 2005 Scion TC is currently at 249,8xx miles.  Original powertrain.  clutch replaced once.  all 4 struts replaced recently 2k miles ago with cheap quick strut assemblies made by Unity.  Hopefully they hold up lol

Once the clutch is replaced, my '91 C1500 ext cab 5.7w5spd man  will begin spinning the digits

once again at 371xxx + 

2006 Tundra DC. 251k miles.

I bought it with 249 and did a bunch of catch up maintenance as noted here:

I’m not driving it a lot, it gets me to the bus stop for a daily 9-5 commute on public transit. I’d sell it if anybody is interested. 

Not even close to several of you, but had a 2003 Volvo XC90 that had 216K when we sold it. Did the brake pads when needed (2x, IIRC) and the timing belt when scheduled.  It did go through both rear wheel bearings, one under warranty and one I paid for.

My parents had a 1981 Volvo 244 that had around 60K when they got it - 4 speed with OD.  They sold it to one of my siblings at about 130K, who proceeded to do nothing but basic maintenance and throw pick-n-pull tires at it until they sold it at 377K.  Engine was never apart and it had the original clutch

When this thread started I didn't have one, but it's been long enough that I do now...my 1986 BMW M535i has a little over 210,000 miles on it.  Still runs great, the engine has never been apart.

2004 Tacoma. 258K miles. Motor/Trans all original. Only oil changes, few filters, and oil and trans fluid/diff fluid changes. Tires every 70K miles. Brakes every 80K miles. Rear drums still original.

After almost four years I’m at 157751. 

303,500 on my Mustang, and the Rav4 is closing on on 200k (currently 184k).

The Jeep has just over 249k on it as of when I buried it in the back of the garage for some work over the winter.  BMW will be a while before it makes the list, only 149k on that. 

This is a fun thread! I think these cars are more special than those "collector" cars you always see that were put away new with zero miles. All these cars have been well-used, but cared for.  My 200K Porsche is a baby in this group!

My 2012 Mazda5 has 206,000; haven’t driven it since April or so or it would have another 20,000 or so

We have a 2005 in my family, bought new and also only replaced the clutch (one of the springs broke). It probably had 10k more now as this was early this year:

103k on our 2012. If it makes it to 200k without motor or trans blowing up, I would celebrate to high heavens that it made it that far 

My s40 has 255k, one of my 240s has almost 400k but i swapped in a new engine with turbo that has around 200k.

You guys can’t catch me!

My daily is now at 565,000.

Didn’t drive since April because the trans did blow up. Took me six months to swap the clutch and new trans. I may procrastinate a bit.

In reply to SVreX :

I was kinda hoping to catch up! Third check back for my 1991 Escort. 471,000 and still going, but my 03 Focus is taking a lot of the Escorts miles.

My aunt just turned in her original-owner 325,000 mile Prius. Original batteries, hardly a lick of trouble.

Dang. And I thought my E36 was worn out at 228,000 miles. 

You guys do work

The Miata has about 170,000. The truck has about 200,000 more. 

I drove the truck to work today. 36 mile round trip. It pulled that trailer at 70 like it wasn't there. Original engine.

oh, and back on topic:

• 2003 honda odyssey, 226k. trans at 44k, EGR valve at 100k, AC compressor at 125k, water pump at 190k (was new at the 105k timing belt change), front suspension and wheel bearings around 200k, powertrain mounts at 215k but it needed them a lot earlier. 

Traded that ‘03 Ody in April 2014 at 256k.  Replacement ‘10 Ody had 48k, today it has 149k.  My DD ‘07 525xi is at 193k.  Both vehicles are accruing miles at about 2k/month. 

We have a 2007 Cobalt LS with about 265k on it. Cost $7,000 brand new OTD and has required very little maintenance (non routine). I believe the front struts have been changed, a CV axle, and some sort of belt I'm blanking on. Overall, not too bad.
