186k in a landrover... on the isle of man!!! bloody hell you must have drove around the island a fair few times now then

actually... 186k miles in a landrover sounds like tortune. They arent the most comfortable car on the roads.

My dad's M reg cavalier 1.8i is still plodding on... He's got 165k on the clock at the moment.

You really dont drive that often do you, both of my XE's have 100K+ on them and are now nicely run in...

**Russ** · 19-12-2003, 12:43 AM

Is a complete and total fabrication, Sir. Mine's ace...

And secondly, it's only got 136K on it, just the three's a bit dodgy and looks like an 8. I had a look tonight. And as for them not being comfortable, that's a matter of opinion - you just gotta be the right size, like me

**3Dfx** · 19-12-2003, 01:21 AM

I do my fair share.

Keeping my milage down tho... so its worth more and I can get my 172 Clio next year.

**Howard** · 19-12-2003, 10:05 AM

Lowe, that car is lovely. None of the silly body kits or silly stickers all over it that don't add anything to the performance... Just a nice clean design that I really like!

And from what I've read, excellent performance (which is the key thing imho)!

I agree, 5 doors does add to the insult when you absolutely pwn a boy racer somewhere, I'd be laughing

Maybe you should add some more "utility-like" things on it, like a roof rack, towbar, etc, just to further add to the insult

Lol

**Ant** · 20-12-2003, 12:29 AM

LOL! A roof rack would be class!!!

I miss my old Clio 1.4 RT

Yeah, that is rather annoying, I get it all the time.

Mines on 160K, still going strong. And revs to over 7k, regularly.

3dfx - what planet are you from?

lowe - just gone through the 200bhp/tonne barrier here - it's all a bit of a haze atm!

**Lowe** · 27-12-2003, 01:28 PM

Great isn't it.

I'm at around 170bhp/tonne at the moment with the driver in at the moment. Just gotta save up for the new turbo and intercooler... Though Xmas has ruined all of that for now.

Hopefully by April though...

**5lab** · 27-12-2003, 03:47 PM

pfft. my NONCLASSIC petrols done 172k and still going strong. not bad for a cheap renault block

most cars are capable of that kinda milage if looked after properly and serviced - i know a cab driver (mate of mine) whose 4 yr old mondeo has done 250k
