Louie Lungbubble 0 Posted September 15, 2004 :cry: As I sit writing this, I've got about an hour left of owning a sub 100 thousand mile motor. Came in to work this morning, and as I parked up it was reading 99997. Forgot to feed the cat this morning, so I've got to go home and do it at dinner which is gonna push it over the 100k mark. Bugger! :roll: How hard shall I volley the moggie? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted September 15, 2004 Its actually a spectacular unexciting event watching the mileage roll over to 100k - it is weird seeing that extra digit on the tacho though :) I was lame enough to take a picture of mine on 100,000 though as I managed to roll home JUST before it rolled over to 100001 :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Louie Lungbubble 0 Posted September 15, 2004 Ha Ha... I was debating the photo thing myself but you've convinced me not to bother. May just take a snap of the cat bouncing off the cieling! (Joke. My cat can fill me in!) :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted September 15, 2004 Mine rolled over the 100K mark last week (now almost at 101K) and I didn't even notice..... or care to be honest! K Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted September 15, 2004 I got a photo when my old GTI rolled over 100,000 as I was sat on the motorway doing 100mph! :D Do that in a poxy ford then! ;) :lol: (also did the same at 110 and 120 then sold the car... ;) ) To be honest, on a car like a Corrado, 100,000 means jack these days... 250,000... that's a different matter! ;) :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Louie Lungbubble 0 Posted September 15, 2004 I'd have a go of that Henny, but I'm not sure I could get up to 100mph in 3 miles! :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dinkus 10 Posted September 15, 2004 I've got another 20+k to go before mine gets that far :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tempest 0 Posted September 15, 2004 Yes, can only agree that it's rather unspectular, as mine rolled over to 100k driving back from the Ragley Hall Mega meet last Sunday. Nevertheless I was hoping to delay this till I had had the Rado for a year, which is towards the end of this month. Tempest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Louie Lungbubble 0 Posted September 15, 2004 Oh well. That's that then. It came and went, unspectacularly on a roundabout at 25mph It IS wiered seeing the extra digit on the odometer, but nothing exploded, no party poppers came out of the vents, and I'm now a mile and a half into my cars centenery year!
