(should have read "so.. is IT official" )....does reaching 100,000 miles mean that my V70 is officially RUN IN.???

Just got back from a week in the Peak District...the beast performed effortlessly as usual...and just as we entered the village where we live..the milometer clicked over to 100k miles. ...only another 1 or 2 hundred thousand miles to go and I can claim she's a high miler.!!!

Glad you enjoyed the Peak District. My S60 is also getting close to being run in - 97,500 now, a couple of hundred this weekend and then a further 3 weeks for the remaining miles, should get there by the time it is 4.5 years old (end of Sept).... Might give it a wash to celebrate

my wentworth did 279000 before she quit...

I got a Sierra on 312,000 miles with just a small oil leak to show for it!

not yet, but keep going you will get there, glad you enjoyed the trip.

I had a company car a White Vauxhall Astra "C" reg that when I had to hand it back for another had 160,000 miles on in just over 2 years. Might have been a low spec workhorse, but it was relaible and we enjoyed it.

Present V50 is only on 116,000 miles on an 05 plate.
