del68 0 Posted May 10, 2004 Bought my 1.8 16v in Oct 03, was showing 137,000 then. I use it daily to get to and from work, 90% motorway miles and she is now tipping 146,000. But iI hope to sell her soon so I can get a G60 or Vr (I wish!!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted May 18, 2004 I've heard Corrado's blow up when they reach 100k, Is this true? Corrado's blow up whenever they feel like it.. be it 10,000 miles or 100,000 miles - they don't need mileage as a guideline :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bought it with 73 on the clock, meaning I've done 26K in 18 months.......20 of those K purely joy ride miles :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
