A couple of recent threads have been about cars with excessive mileage but still on the road, so I was wondering how many of us are in vehicles which have done over 100,000 miles.

Foggy's super Skoda has 132,000.

Footimad's perky Peugeot is at 103,000

My nifty Nissan topped 142,000 this week.

Anybody wish to add theirs'?[:)]

Not me - our Skoda is six years old and is way under average mileage thankfully!!!

Must be a Chevette Cavalier or a Viva?

My dad had a 1966 D reg viva brand new, it was awful!! I had a second hand old box style viva which was ok but no synchromesh on 1st gear so it was a pain to drive.

My little Citroen C2 05 plate just broke through the 40k barrier, had it from new, 3 trips to scotland, numerous to wales, luckily work is only 4-10 miles away in the last 3 years. Plus i had 18 months of no driving due to work commute via train (no i wasn't banned as many thought i had been!)

I've got a 55 reg Fiesta and it's done around 44k miles. I had it from 3 years old but I only do about 7k a year so hopefully it'll keep going!
