I'm impressed as the engine is one of the only things that has never broken, still all original stuff

To be fair though, your engines not exactly done that many miles has it ;) just the chassis and most of that would be new :lol:

 

Mine's on 160,000 now. The old engine was still perfect at that mileage as well, although we did do headgasket and chains etc. New engine's a bit less than that though 8)

I remember when i hit 180k and i thought it was really high but that seems like a distant memory as now i'm about to hit 191k :lol: My cars still fresh though as every area of the car has been refreshed and i keep on top of any jobs that need doing :)

TBH, I think it's because the early cars were built better.

LOL, I was waiting for someone to chime in with that :lol:

 

Who cares anyway, engines I consider to be wear / disposable items. They are still a factory block and head, but with new innards. The car itself has done 180K :wink:

 

You have completely changed your engine for one that was never even in a Corrado, so you're not part of the club :lol:

my mate has a mile long party every 10k in his car, highly random the first time you see it, but ive grown to accept it and join in :lol:
