That's nothing, mine's well over 100k now.
120 odd I think and the engine's still going strong.
It's just the chassis that concerns me, rustier than
an old shipwreck lol

Mine just did 166000. Hit it as parked outside the house. Stayed there all night on the exact 166000. Wish I'd thought to photograph it tho
