    "How Many Miles Are On Your Car?"

    Guys, I've been following a thread on Pelican for folks to post "How Many Miles Are On Your Car?"

    Just saw the following. WOW! Is this anyone's car here?

    "1970 911T, 840,000 documented miles. Original engine and transmission (three rebuilds on engine, two on transmission). One re-paint. Still going strong!"

    I'll bet Rick K. will have his 2.2S up in that range someday.

    Patrick has 99,120 miles and the RS has 109,196 Km. These are actual and documented for both.

    Hello All,
    I'm a new member and first time participant on this forum. I'm also the owner of this '70T. I don't have a picture to post right now, but I saw a couple of pics from the 2008 Excellence article posted on the previous thread. Almost all of the miles were put on by the previous owner, who left me the car after he died in 2007. I had maintained the car for him since the late eighties.

    Just rolled over to 134,000.

    9,684 on my watch since I've owned it a little over a year.

    178,000 with 6000 miles on the engine, transmission, MFI, suspension rebuild. The chassis still seems really stiff.

    about 216,000 miles on my 73E. I have had it since 1995 at 135,000 so getting close to 100,000 since have owned it during which time it has progressively had bare metal respray in original colour and rust repair, engine and gear box rebuild to 2.7 specs, suspension and brakes done and now all interior redone this year.
