Default 200,000

Well I am about to join the 200,000 miles club. I am currently at 199,925 It burns oil, it leaks oil, its rusty and ugly, but it still drives like a champ. Original tranny, original motor, couple water pumps, transfer case chain, wheel bearings, and probably hundreds of oil changes. I am currently living in Indianapolis, but i am about to make a 400 mile trip home to michigan where i will be sadly selling it to a buddy of mine and i will be picking up a new rig. LONG LIVE THE 318!

Wow congrats! I'm at 158k on my 92'...and most everything on it is original minus the water pump. And there is the body work from the 3 wrecks it's been in lol.
I'm totally restoring mine though...
What are you getting to replace it??

One of these years I'll get to 200K, just over 109,000 in mine right now. Bought mine with 86,000 miles in January 2006.
New trans, new water pump, new timing chain all within the last 100 miles. New transfer case on the way when I get back in country (and than hopefully I can get her back to Arkansas for new front end parts!)
Only other thing I've replaced (besides tune-up items) was the starter.
