Reading Immortals thread about his car being stolen, made me wonder how many people are driving high mileage cars. lets see them, tell us the mileage, if you got it new or used and what you have HAD to fix on it. Not regular maintenance just repairs you had to make to keep the car on the road.

Mine: 03 Jetta TDI, I got it used with 92,000 miles in 05. I drive it every day and I still get 47 MPG. currently 230,000 miles

I have had to replace: Radiator, clutch, brakes, wheel bearings, a motor mount and tires. I have done other things by choice for preformance or PM but not essential to keep the car on the road
these are the most recent pics after I replaced the Passenger doors due to being hit in a round-a-bound!:sonicjay:

Yup. Not much stop and go driving. Lots of highway towing miles with trailer brakes apparently set very high by previous owner (my dad).
