Highest i\'ve seen (other than commercial trucks that have done over a million km\'s) was a landcruiser that was coming up to the 700 mark

Drove my landcruiser from 60,000 km to 460,000 km in just on 25 years pretty much knew that truck inside out and upside down still have it not sure what I am going to do with it to be honest

I think with that kinda use you\'ve had your moneys worth out of it so you may as well keep it

Seen a few taxi\'s which are on their second trip around clock. There also was a RS legacy in Rotorua which was in the 700\'s but was very tidy.

Put 100thou on the work hilux in last 12 months or so. Ive got a customer who runs 2 rangers as service trucks and every year he buys a new one to replace one. Always under warranty and never do more than 150,000km if they do he trades in early. Cant afford to have one off the road they make him far too much money. My theory is as sell up in 3 years or so dependant on km when you get to the equilibrium of depreciation vs resaleable value. Almost have the boss convinced its just the initial outlay that makes it tough.

[Guest]

You average Approx 8300 km a month driving? That\'s a lot of time on the road.

[ADIKT]

Ive done 9000kms since I brought the car (dec last year)

[BUGEYESTI]

10,000 in a year

[94 Leone]

Ive put:1500kms on since I last put it back together.

I see.. Interesting! Didn\'t know they could be fixed.. where do you go for this and how much $$ does it usually cost?

[DacerX]

some interior repair place in sydenham, going to be about 80 bucks, going to get my sti seats as well as som stitching on my bl seats

[scylar]

Got some tyres for the enkei\'s and finally found a cheap sti diffuser ;D

[Rosssub]

VHT Wrinkle Red SP204. It\'s quite a bit lighter than the original STI red:

[ADIKT]

Wait till it\'s been in the bay for a few thousand k\'s. It\'ll prob end up the same shade

Very, very true.

Definitely going to have to give the new manifold a coat to match though. ;D

In anticipation of my Tomei downpipe coming from EBay I took my axleback off and went for a drive..

Woah. Never gonna be the same when it goes back on

[AdamOst]

Got car checked by panel beater, he reckons its only the rear panel that needs to get pulled and straightened, not chassis as such, so that\'s good news. Reckons it\'ll be around $500+second hand boot/bumper/bumper support bar. Hopefully should be able to get in done in 2 weeks or so, which gives me a bit of time to sort out a replacement boot/bumper.

Wheres the best place to get panels? strongs/trademe/other? Also are the STI/Non sti/non wrx rears bumpers the same except for the end caps?
