High miler experienced today .....

[Lincs Robert]

Taxi today from Limerick to Shannon airport.

2004 Volvo S80 D5 auto, with 501k miles on the clock! Yes, miles, not km.

In speaking to the driver (who has had the car from 30k miles), he puts the longevity down to oil changes @6k miles.

So there you go, that's the most I've experienced......

But you forget, apparently the D5's eat head gaskets and blow their auto boxes every 50 feet.

My 190 is on 230k. The say they are still a bit tight until they pass 250k.

What was the interior like on the Volvo? I've heard they wear the years/miles well but that is extreme!

Not bad actually....., Leather was much better than I was anticipating..... Overall a bit creaky though

[Viral_Jim]

Well, I'd take a bit creaky at 500k, particularly as Taxis dont lead the easiest of lives!
