My Focus only has a measly 128,000 on the clock and the previous Yaris had 45,000

Before those was the mighty 1.9td pug with well over 300k on the clock, I cant say exactly how many miles at the milometer stopped working properly a couple of years into a 7 year ownership it just clocked up a few more miles when it felt like it but i would estimate around 350k and that was still bobbing around a couple of years after i sold it (y)

Probably the same diesel engine in the shitreon?

Many, many years ago I had a Suzuki Vitara (1600, three door), when I part ex'd it the salesman said he thought it was in brilliant condition for 80,000
I said nothing!

The thing is the clock only went up to 99,000 before going back to zero :)

Amazingly reliable vehicle though, went tenting all over the UK and later with a caravan.

A guy I used to know bought a brand new Suzuki Rhino, I used to joke that it did more mileage on it’s side than on it’s wheels, the day he bought it he drove it home then set off to pick his wife up from work, as he reversed out of his drive he didn’t see the oncoming vehicle until late, slammed on the brake & the Rhino went into a skid & tipped over, to be fair he did get it repaired & had it for a long time.
