Scrapped a '93 2.6i Cartlton CDx with 137,000 (rot) and replaced it last month with a '98 3.0i Omeage Elite with 137,000  ;D and the engine its best bit.

Late 2001 2.6 V6 Elite on 125,000. Ex fleet, but I was fairly confident that the mileage was genuine :p

Going strong, and no obvious wear.

(maybe time for a gearbox oil change...)

My CD2.0 was over 130,000

The 2.6 is now 85000 - needs an oil change


An oil change? at 85,000? Nahhhhh.... the stuff doesn't need to be changed - ever!  ;D

1998 MV6......135k ish

Runs perfectly..... The guy who had it before us had it from new virtually and he didn't skimp on anything engine wise..I rang the main dealer up in Blackpool where it had been serviced all its life and asked them to send me a print out of all the work that has been carried out.. They did that and it makes a good read, like I said no expense spared  :)

Just a shame he didn't show that much attention to the bodywork.. We have done what we can but the rust is really setting in now and there comes a time when it dosen't make any sense to plough loads of money on say a re-spray.
