Re: MK2 Mileage
47,000 miles now (bought with 19,800 on it).
Only problem has been sticking front calipers.

Re: MK2 Mileage
About 82k now, but the bottom end has been completely rebuilt so should go on for a while yet.
Re: MK2 Mileage
98ishk on the clock but thats a mix of km's and m's because when it was converted they didn't calculate the miles it had done and clock it. I've got the MOT's etc to back it up which is always a good thing. I would gestimate around 75k but the engine i have in has only done 50ish due to an engine change.

Re: MK2 Mileage
About 74k on a rev 3 tubby.
Take it i have loads of miles yet.
Also the guy with 162k on it....do you notice that the car is a little slower now with that sort of mileage, ie) Lost a bit of perfomance?
or is it as good as it ever was?

Re: MK2 Mileage
1992 - 84k so average of 6k a year
Hardly used in my eyes.

109,000 on an ickle FE, still bounce it off the red as often as I can, managed to burn 34,000 miles of optimax in just two years of ownership!!
Re: MK2 Mileage
My mates rev1 na has 140k miles on it and its still running fine apart from the gearbox leaking clutch fluid a bit! Anyone on here clocked up more than 200k?
Re: MK2 Mileage
Going the other way!! Wife's '94 Rev3 UK T-Bar has just clocked 34,000!!

Mines a 94 GT-S T-Bar Turbo. Rev3
A little over 55K miles now. Gear box needs rebuilding Syncro gone between 4th to 3rd.
Runs like a dream other than that. (Just touched every wood item I found just then [-o< )

Re: MK2 Mileage
If a cars looked after properly then I wouldnt think pistons would be a problem.
Or most internals for that.
