Default Milage?

Just out of curiosity, what do you, as owners have for milage on your cars? I managed to put 345,000KM on my Lexus LS400. Do we have anybody here with 300k + cars?

Default Mileage

Er... this tends to result in many posts, so how about people only post if they have OVER 100K miles (say 150K km).

A few on the .co.uk forum posted that they have.

Autotrader is a way to find more.

Hoping this humble contribution of mine meets with "approval", but my S-type's done 121,000mile in four years. I have seen Jags advertized with well over 300,000mile on the clock. How's that for mileage?
It goes without saying, as many professional mechanics will tell you, if the mileage is "motorway miles", i.e. the engine never gets cold hardly, the wear and tear is much reduced as compared with stop-start motoring as with taxis, delivery vans etc. Vehicles used like that never seem "tight", always seeming just a bit loose and rattly/squeaky.

Oh, nearly forgot, panic, my XJ6 had 155,000mile on the clock, no engine oil consumption, no autobox problems, no diff. whine.
I've just made a little bet with myself.
