      340,xxxmiles Need to do the math to get it closer, But the odometer wasn't working when i got it so idk the real mileage. It has a 141xxx cluster from the parts car in it right now though.

      My old 97 Escort had over 300,xxx (no idea how much because the odo quit at 298,xxx) when i sold it over a year ago and a friend still drives it.

      But i come from a high mileage family, 96 Windstar over 200k (and it went through 3 teenagers) before mom drove it a week without oil and it threw a rod, 95 Taurus 225,xxx on original transmission (idk if the headgaskets have been replaced, i don't think so though 3.8l) 96 Dodge 1500 230,xxx original trans (worked hard for the last 130,xxx) 92 Crown Vic (last esimate was around 400,000 hard to say since the odo hasn't worked in atleast 10 years), 88 Olds 88 Wagon (pushing 500,000 when we sold it and the guy was still driving it 6 years later).

        The DeathEgg, when I sold it a year ago, had about 235k. Not huge miles, but the engine had never been apart (besides changing the timing belt and water pump), not even for valve adjustments or gaskets, and it had the original clutch. If my Yaris turns out to be half the car the Festy was, I will be happy.
        If it has boobs or wheels, sooner or later you're going to have trouble with it.

          363k on my 88, only thing really been done to it is replaced exhaust valves. Don't drive it now but it ran last time I started it. Quart of oil every 200 miles tho lol.
          89 L, hopefully returning from the dead soon with a little more power... :twisted:

                              Well my cluster shows 275k ish kms, but since it's from a 323, and nothing mechanical on my car is original festiva parts, the true mileage on my festiva is completely unknown lol

                              If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?
