Hi All.

200,000 miles yesterday. Just run in now.

These cars have to be one of the highest milers around? Short of comercial vehicles that is? I have seen several 406's with 300,000ish miles on them.

Start another thread Gary :wink:
Definitely no leaks from the bottom rad hose? The con-rad push fit usually rusts on the end of the hose causing coolant loss.

Did 508 miles this weekend (254 miles each way) from Aberdeen to Penrith; took the family on a Centerparcs holiday.

So now I've got over 47,500 on the clock. Means I've nearly done 20,000 miles since buying the car in November 2008.
