Clock passed 224,000 yesterday. This is a mix of km + miles + around 10 months when the speedo stopped working (which somehow fixed itself!).
Well over 200,000 miles though (150,000 of those driven by me
), still on original engine & gearbox! MY93 WRX - not doing too bad for a 17 year old car, but the rust is really getting stuck in to the rear arches

That is amazing, specially for an import as their engines seem to let go earlier.
My UK MY97 daily driver just passed 152k on original (slappy) engine. Had two gearboxes tho. Spare engine waiting in the garage for the inevitable day. Just don't ask about the wife's Scooby tho. Will get round to it one day, honest
