One Hundred and Eighty!

(to be said in the voice of Tony Green)

My 316i passed 180,000 last night

Out of interest, how many people here have E30s with milages over 200?

I know Rog has done over 200 in his touring, but there's nobody else who seems to flaunt their high milages, which seems odd as there should be more than one or two on here...

[Zerotonine]

My 316i has 138000 on the clock... can't boast too high a mileage just yet...

[Karan]

mine has 164k

[BenE30]

My 320i has 163,000 which is pretty good!!

[Geeman]

My track car has 185k under it's belt...

[Widge]

169K on my 325i SE.
Looked in the manual yesterday and it says that now its run in
I can go over 3000rpm

[e30_Turbo]

146k and a bit on my 325ise and 168k on the M10 318i before she was put down....

A bloke at work had his Volvo 240 estate on 280k, he had it 3 yrs and never changed the oil, plugs, leads nothing...ran all the way to the scrappy too!!

[E30WEZ]

[Mot]

201k Miles on my E30... then again here in the states high milage E30's isnt all that uncommon. my friend's 325e has 240k..

[Richy325iTouring]

bottom end 210,000 and still very strong

[Wilson325i]

mine's got 158k and the compliments never stop coming on how nice it sounds.

[Davenotouring]

My other Touring has done 206,000 miles and ran sweetly and pulled very strong to 140mph!

The engine is going in mine very soon!

[Adam318i]

My 318i has done 89K, so not to bad, engine is a minter, and garaged all its life by an elderly gentlmen

Adam

[Karan]

my iS project has 60k on it

shes like new prety much, quite a contrast to the m5 donor which is supplying its heart, that has 200k on it

Karan

[frosted]

187k on 89 316i

[Geeman]

Karan... you're putting a 200k M5 unit in the project...? Are you testing the engine before hand...? Re-building the head at all? I just find it hard to believe that you'd put such a high mileage engine into a project that you're spending some much effort doing...

Please... put my mind at rest dude.

212,900...............C'mon Zaust,oooooh oooooooooh chase me chase me (in the voice of that Duncan bloke in a pink jumper)........catch up if ya can

[Karan]

i think the engine has had work done but no history

this engine really does run really really well, as i obvously made sure before buying it

jon informed me that the owner he got it from had shelled out on engine work but was unsure on exactly what.... but it was pricey so i suspect headwork occured.

engine and box are sound though, engine mnakes no smoke at all, and as wil6pot will tell you it pulls very very hard, as hes the only one who has been in it!!!!!!!!!!
sideways at 90mph ///M power

[Turbo-Brown]

My 325i had just over 200k on the clock.

Unfortunately, the engine died of big end failure shortly after. That and the gearbox is shot

[CaesarBob]

I'm no-where near 200k yet, just 109k showing.

Have done 47k in the last 2.5 years tho so at that rate i need another 4yrs 9mths to get to 200k.

[Demlotcrew]

im on 187k

[MartinSE]

My -87 320 has done 97000KM (~60K?) and is going strong!

[Kedge]

Just gone over 107K, only a baby compared to some of those.

[Dom]

should turn over 170k at the end of the week... drives better than my 100k E36 did with the same engine!

[psychochild187]

mine was 145k
sounded good too for a engine thats been driven hard all its life.

[Simon13]

mines just hit 79k 2.5 and sounds tight
