    I wonder what the average mileage is in a scrapyard these days? :)
  • I had a Nova 1.2 petrol that did over 220k before I gave it my brother who was a mechanic. I think he ran it for another year after that!

    Coversley I had a Rover 214SLi that I traded in (I think it probably got scrapped, head gasket had gone) with only about 110k on the clock.

    I also got rid of my old Corsa 1.0i petrol as the cam belt snapped with only 36k on it, not very good!

    I now run a 2.0 TDCi Mondeo (diesel) that has done 36k (04 plate) since I got it a year ago, now has 130k on the clock and passed its MOT last week with just a bulb that needed replacing. I'm happy so far.............
