Mines currently on 41k and is looking for a new home (forsale)

 

[Arosa90]

Mine has done 66,500 (1999/T 1.4 SE)

Done 88k. miles on 1.0L. Feels like it will go forever. Not something you could say 20yrs. ago on a small engined car, a complete rebuild was required for small engines at about 50k. miles. I'm thinking Moggy Minors, Minis, Anglias and similar small cars.

 

[grotmeister]

yeah I agree. I had a dolomite that threw a rod at 40K and a hilman imp that did the same at about the same mileage, things have moved on.

I am from Spain. I have in my arosa sdi 266.000kms. Only I have problems with my window in twice. I change the front shock absorvers with 66.000kms. and it has a bilstein now. Sorry, my english it is not good.

A 1/4 of a million km's. Thats an awful lot of miles as well. I bet you are glad you bought a German car.

Just sold my 1998 1.0 at 137K - Drove great and went straight through its mot last week

98,982 miles, Tdi Arosa, 2002, just coming up to 7 years old. Another 3 years & it will be worth £2000 if the Government scrappage allowance is still applicable!

I've got over 106k on my 1998 1.0. He sailed straight through his MOT last week too!

I think i'm gonna put him back on ebay soon tho. I need something that's a little less soul destroying in the outside lane of a motorway. Although I did 130miles of Yorkshire country roads at the weekend and it was great fun... so he's gonna be tough to get rid of.

 

[lunalupi]

85k on a 1998 1 litre Of which I've put on over half those miles in less than 5 years!

 

[mcscooby]

166,000 miles on a 98 R 1.0L

 

[lunalupi]

Yay, mine should have plenty of miles left then

 

[Boo]

166,000 miles on a 98 R 1.0L

[mcscooby]
