I had this happening a few weeks ago.

The ODO-meter was reset after a large restauration done in 1989, where it must have been decided, that the car was as-new again...
Mileage at reset was 119.000 km. so actual total mileage for my car is now 219.000 km

Get it man! I'm tired of seeing these low mileage XJSs, drive em! I feel like the V12 can easily do 200k miles (320k km) but no one drives them enough to prove it. I won't be upset when I break 100k miles (currently 98), I'll be celebrating.

546000 on Sir Arthur, never opened it up, not that silly.

Wife main pilot, and Redline is standard,

Fuel gauge moves faster than the Tacho, who cares. Ya want economy, buy a Kia, HAHAHAHHA.

The XJS had 246000 when I moved it coz I could no longer get in out of it, and that was serious "drive it like ya stole it" running.

Current "Dark side" S Types driven the same.
