Good to hear there are a few past the 100k mark.

I did expect that would be the case :)

SMD is on holiday but I'm sure he won't mind me telling you his "old girl" has done 100k plus, 54 plate I think :thumbs:

'53 plate with 57K

 

If you look at contamporary engines of the same type and build quality I think we could be seeing even more miles than some seem to expect out of the engines at least. The Toyota V8s in the Lexus LS barges have gone beyond 400k without a rebuild or anything :scare:

Absolutely. Discounting heavily modified cars and assuming regular maintenance 200k should be fine on most modern understressed engines.

 

The rest of the car will be worth peanuts by then and most of the other moving parts will be shot but engine wise it should not be am issue.
