I’m thinking it was maybe a shuttle vehicle for Eastern Europeans? Not stereotyping, serious question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timolloyd Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 ‘Shuttle’ being the operative word there, given the moon mileage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opened the door and checked the mileage…. Yes, that’s 458,633 miles on the clock. Astonishingly it did an incredible 140,000 miles in one year! Those 2.0 TDCI engines are actually brilliant when looked after, that car is living (or rather not now!) proof of it greengartside 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the real high mileage disco award goes to the guy that got over 700k out of his. 3 engines later…… Gaffer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rust Collector Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Just checked the dash of my Disco. Could be total mileage, cost of ownership over 1.1 miles or how many crankshafts it’s had since new, not sure yet 🤔😅 MrGTI6, RoverFolkUs, Popsicle and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And having seen her, you could comfortably halve that and nobody would bat an eyelid.

Saabnut Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Not a huge mileage compared to many on this thread but noteworthy. Fortunately I had a passenger* with me to record it. 180k miles is not really unusual, especially for a diesel. But this is an old school 1.5 non turbo diesel fitted in this I doubt there are many higher mileage AX about.

Don't flog it to Quentin Wilson (allegedly) Sorry, I meant to reply to you much earlier; thankyou very much for your kind comments! Mechanically, she's sorted. It would be great to do some cosmetic stuff, but the thing is I don't want to alter the original paint really. Every bump and scrape tells a story! She does need an interior deep clean and an external polish! 😎 outlaw118 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
