I know how you feel Nik - just had mine in for a service and worked out I've covered 6,400miles in the past 11months & 2 weeks. Considering that included 2,800 in just three trips (including the South of France), that works out at 300 miles a month!

Think I read somewhere on here that if you remap/mod a high mileage car it can actually pro-long the life of the engine, cant remember why ...any experiences ???
But in them Recaros at least it was a comfortable 33000 miles !

I bought mine with average/high ish mileage.
2000 with 104K, I dont do many miles a year so this was one of the reasons of getting what people would class a high miler. Within reason as long as it has been maintained mileage isnt an issue for me. I have seen some low mileage cars in **** poor state.

totally agree with that, mines a 52 reg and has done 94k, got it at a good price and only do approx 5k a year, and with me being a mechanic/mot tester maintenance isn't a problem either:icon_thumright: (oil change every 3k)
