10 years old & going strong!

Post by Blubayou »

Morning all,

Not been on here for a while as my car continues to plod along.

Nearly 10 years old (a baby compared to some) 95'000 miles now & just flew through another MOT.

I look after it & don't thrash everywhere, enjoy the consistent 48mpg & sometimes even clean it.

Point is, it's a damn good car!

Thanks to all the great articles on this site keeping these old cars going, cam belt change soon, wish me luck! :P

It's good to hear yours is still going strong. Mine will be 10 in December :shock: I've not checked the mileage lately but it's something like 130,000 (kilometers 8) )

Good luck with the cam belt! :cheesy:

Good for you. Mine was 10 at the end of March and has just reached 101000 miles.

Cambelt history is a bit sketchy, so I'll be doing mine shortly..............
