Default Highest Miles

Hi -

I'm wondering who out there has the highest miles. I'm curious because I plan to rack em up on my F-Type. I want to drive this thing - a LOT. High miles (IMHO) should be worn as a badge of honor - especially if you're the one who put the miles on the car and you're taking good care of it. Also trying to gauge build quality. The way things are made today, quality of materials (drive-train) and applying advanced engineering and materials to these cars - who knows how long they'll run. My '64 MGB has nearly 200k mi and runs like a champ.

Anyone care to share?

My number is 39k, but I've only owned the car for one-full-day.

Let me know!

I have 37K but only drive in nice weather, no snow hail heavy rain etc. Spring, summer and fall but plan to use as much as possible. No sense it being in the garage all the time.

40k+. I used to commute in it, but now that I'm retired, it doesn't get driven as much.

I'll never win this one. I hit 13,100 last night on my way home from work. Had 7,800 when I purchased in March of last year and I'd say about half the mileage since has been by the shop. This is even as my daily driver! I baby her but honestly don't think about how many miles I put on her. Heck, I'd even consider moving a bit farther from work now that I have this car and my motorcycle to commute with since they both make being in/on them more fun.

Thank you, I'm looking to do a respray because the front has a lot of rock chips. Also need to do an under spoiler and new grill. Other than that, everything is fine

No lol. I bought the car with 74k miles and I didn't even make it home from the 3 hour drive before I lost all the coolant in the car. Water pump went out. I took that opportunity to replace the water pump, thermostat, replaced the crossover pipe with the new updated ones almost all hoses and lines. Then 2 weeks later an injector died, and siezed itself into the head. So tore it apart again and yanked all 8(siezed)and replaced them as well as all the plugs. Upgraded the charge cooler pump as well. Replaced the isolator as well.
