WhackyWill Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Zeds will do the mileage, providing they are serviced and looked after, right fuel and full service history a must. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZEUS Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Mines a 53 plate with 106k on it, never missed a beat in 3 and a half years of ownership. Only had to have a rust scab on rear arch sorted. I plan to keep it forever (really!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Do you not know you are supposed to FI any Zed with 10k or more miles on it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nowhereboy Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I'm on about 63,000, 04 plate. I've been wondering about this recently actually, what sort of mileage can these cars do before FI would not be a good idea? If I decide to go turbo in 10,000 miles time will the engine be up to it?

Scott TMN Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I wonder/worry about this too, but I hear a lot of reassuring comments about mileage just being 1 factor towards engine life.. I just ticked over to 75k, 68800 when I got it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
