Well its happened, my 325i touring has done it!! 200k!

It really is a true testament of the engineering of these cars and its proof that with servicing these engines will just keep going! (Lets see if it can do 300k) My e30 still pulls like stink as well, fair enough its 20 years old compaired to the modern day car but its still got some umph about it!

Anyway I was quite sad and pulled over and took a picture of the memorable achievement!!
