I guess it's just a case of viewing a couple to find a well cares for example.

How do I pay?

 

[nutnutwelshman]

Pay what young Sir

Membership Kev

 

[nutnutwelshman]

Having a blonde click on settings on the top of the page then down on the left click on paid subscriptions

 

[Gez]

Lol, I would have said how to do it, but I forgot where the pay subscriptions was located

 

[nutnutwelshman]

No probs I must do it every day fella

60000 isnt that much mate, my 200 is pushing 55k now and runs and drives sound

you're right it's not, but it's a milestone and a fork in the road. They're either about to fall part, or very well maintained, with very little in the middle. I see some shockers

My full fat 197 56 plates got 93000 and going well.... I was trying to sell it, but can't get more than 2900... and had only couple phone calls, no one saw it.

Mileage, hmmmm, on the basis that a Volvo P1800s petrol engine has just clicked over 3million miles! All down to careful maintenance and using oem parts apparently. All modern engines are capable of at least 250k miles if looked after and respected. All humble opinion of course.

As long as I get 100-120K+ out of my 200 before a rebuild I'd be happy.

wow really, is that through a dealer or selling it private? i have an 06 197 close to 93000 miles too.

[Gez]

There was an 06 197 on eBay the other day, 128,000 miles, think that sold for around £2,200-2400 iirc.

 

[James17]

really?! i didn't think my car could be worth so little!

 

[nutnutwelshman]

Well guys I do not keep mine that long the meg will go at around 65000 and buy a new one

 

[Gez]

What mileage are you on now Kev?

 

[nutnutwelshman]

Hi fella just over 33000 why do you ask young Sir

private... 6mths tax road, 6mths M.O.T. and brand new bridgestone re070 on front... mayby it's bad time for selling car.

Just was curious with the mileage you do. It's not high considering. Thought it would be much more.

Was your reg? september 10?

 

[nutnutwelshman]

Got it in April at 23500
