Highest Mileage ?

[Seamster15]

Hi all,
I was just wondering who had the highest mileage car on the forum and what it the mileage is ?
It would be great if MBUK started the High Mileage reward scheme like they have in the States.... Perhaps we should lobby MBUK ?

My ML hit 94k today, roll on the century.

Cheers,

Simon

Fair enough, It would be nice to see some updates as that list is nearly 2 years old now.

My ex-taxi and humble 1985 W123 200T : 323,788 miles.

It is currently being restored.

Well, here is a useless bit of trivia for you. The highest ever recorded mileage on ANY car was recorded on a Mercedes 190E. Believe it or not, it reached just over 3,300,000 miles.................yes, 3.3 million miles. it was all on 1 engine and 1 gearbox. Now that is impressive.
I had a friend who got 450k out of his toyota supra before the gearbox decided to give up drive.

I'm sure that your car was only at 228k when I was bidding on it last year......

 

[MangoMan]

Yeah....

You're quite right, see this link on another thread: http://mbclub.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?p=158837#post158837

I don't use it much, except to go down yacht club, & to tootle around.

Did you find another one for yourself by the way?

Unfortunatley the circumstances changed, I got a Focus........

 

[MangoMan]

Ah well, not all is lost. You still have the 'ML'

Cheers, Bill.

Theres a Vaneo on autotrader today showing 350,000 miles on a T plate (I think) although it looks in too good a condition, maybe a mis-print

Re that 190E: what did he do, cruise round Nardo for 20 hrs a day?

My half-brother has a W124 300D with 497,000 miles. He just bought it for £500

Personally I think it's been clocked...!
