Supercharged 2 Posted May 2, 2005 corradoman24, Welcome to the forum. Moving this to General Car chat... Most G60's have around 100k now and as long as they've been looked after, regular oil changes etc then the engines should be fine, budget £500 for a charger rebuilt tho if needed.

2jesper4 0 Posted May 2, 2005 mine has run over 400000 km with the same engine, so it should not be a problem Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted May 3, 2005 2jesper4, Welcome to The Forum! That's some serious useage there! Get some pics of your car up! 8) corradoman24, Welcome to The Forum too! My first G60 had almost 250K miles on it when I rebuilt the engine, and my new one has 159,000 on her at the moment and rising rapidly (I've put 9K on since January!) 100,000 is nothing! ;) As Supercharged says, make sure it's in good condition bodywise, has been regularly serviced and has had the charger serviced, or budget to get it done as soon as you buy the car.
