High Milers - what’s yours at? |
|
I’m returning to D3 ownership next week and joining the high miler club with 124000 miles. Would be great to hear from others with much higher mileage and still running well... cheers! If nothing else it’ll help to assure the wife that they are capable of doing big miles....

I like these messages - makes me feel confident that there will be at least another 60,000 miles in the D3 I collect this week with 124,000 on.. I only do 6-7k per year so if I get a couple of years without any issues I’d be very happy.

That’s amazing. Must have been serviced and maintained very well. Owner should right a guide on engine longevity rules..

It’s almost too good to be true! I’d love to know what work it does.
