236000 Miles

[bullet2430]

How many do you have on yours?, I am new to this site, and have heard these little cars were indestructable, with proper maintence, Thats why I purchased mine to drive about 48 miles a day round trip, it keeps the miles off the F-150. Granted my 91's 1.3 engine was totally rebuilt a 202000, but it runs great, no complaints here

Welcome. Sounds like your car if doing great. I believe there was someone on here with 500K+. Well into 200K is not uncommon. Keep the oil changed and keep em cool. they'll go for a long time. Many time they still run good but rust gets outta hand and that is the killer.

223000 on original engine and transmission. still runs like the day it was built, and starts in less than a second. i love my car, i just wish it wasn't beat up on the outside.

Dan,

I have some spare blue parts here at the house. Stop by sometime and see if you would like any of them.

Free if you can use them.

Also pm me a address so I can mail you out a FM3 meet DVD.

Mine hit 230k before I messed it up. Mine came from springfield/orlinda area. I know alot of people in Springfield TN. Are you driving to Nashville everyday? I used to live in Hendersonville (26 years). Welcome to the site.

Between the wife and I we've probably logged at least 600,000 miles in Festivas since 1993. Only twice did one leave us stranded. Once was my fault for using a plastic in line fuel filter which came apart. The other time I can only explain as a fuel line freeze up. It was a sub zero day and the car just stopped. Went back later to rescue it and it started up and drove home without any repair. Ive had other minor problems on the road but they've never failed to get me home. Treat a festy right and it will pay you back many times over.

I was born at Baptist hospital in Murfreesboro, and my Dad still lives there on hwy. 96.
Neanderpaul used to live close to there too.

Cool old town, the courthouse still has the bullet holes from the civil war. Growing like crazy tho.

my festiva clock reads in the 250k category, but i can honestly say the suspension will be 100% new after the winter down to the brake lines. after i get done with my bpt it will also be 100% so can honestly say i have probably lostened every bolt on the car and reasembled it.

Last time I was up there I almost didn't recognize the place. I still have a friend that lives behind the Veterans Hospital about 3 miles. I try to visit every couple of years. I still miss living there. I lived off 231 north

Cainsville pike, 231, that's cool. I drive my festiva up there every year. In the summer. I learned to play golf at the VA hospital

My Dad lives in Lascassas.
