Islandboy Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 My money’s on a Honda. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaclub Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Honda for sure. Civic or accord. And that’s miles!! My civic went 450k KM and still had legs, just wanted something new. Original clutch too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuzzArd Posted May 22, 2019 Author Share Posted May 22, 2019 Yep Honda. 07 Accord. Major? Timing chain. Front end bushings. Struts.… I did eventually change the original clutch at 372,000 miles. Honestly, not anything I would consider major… It’s just a good car that likes to have the sh_t driven out of it. ? Think I fired up a January 2013 Cohiba PE when i hit 300,000. Probably time to take that box out again and smoke another. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habana Mike Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 You drove 400K miles since 2007? I have an 2008 with just around 50K on it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Presidente Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 I guessed it wasn't a Range Rover ...mine has just hit 17000 km and has died twice getting there. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nKostyan Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Don't scold Range Rover. The first year on it breaks all that should break, but then it is a reliable car. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bri Fi Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Nice! I just bought a 2001 Toyota Avalon with 235k miles as a commuter car. I commute about 75 miles to work each way so I’m hoping to get about another 100k out of it. Not a bad investment considering gas prices ($4.00/gal). My truck is unforgiving. I would be ecstatic if I could get 400k miles out of it. Congrats brother. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarryVT Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 I knew it wasn't a BMW! They spend more time in the shop than on the road. After 3 I swore them off! Should have known after first one, 80 miles on car and threw a lifter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pick any brand of cars and people will have good and bad experiences with them. Much like cigars ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGTO Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Got over 325k out of two 2000 7.3L f250s before I sold them. Typical front end stuff and clutches for both. Had the rear brake line rot on one (because it sat on the frame rail and all the road crude accumulated there) and burst on me in the driveway as I drove away. Luckily I had just braked because I thought I forgot something and I had made a tire chock so when I backed in my driveway I wouldn’t hit my fence.

MrGTO Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 My 70 GTO lost a driveshaft at 140mph at 80k original miles. Lots of damage there. ? Probably user error.... Edit: 80k on car not motor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucko8 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Hope that it doesn't start acting up now the car has hit the naughty forties and start playing up like a second hand lawnmower. Lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
