It happened at about 11pm on the 401. I know a bunch of you guys and gals were wondering when I would hit this mark:



Amazing what just simple maintenance and keeping on top of repairs can bring ;)

Looks like you got the good one out of the bunch.

Congrats!

:lol:

amazing really


i caught this one my phone not a while ago

im at 193XXX right now...keeping it synthetic only


were u on the parking lot somewhere or did u pull over.....ur clearly not moving on the speedometer

Impressive Richard, I remember when we were neck'n'neck for mileage. Since I've been in the company vehicle, say 2.5 yrs, you've completely eclipsed me. In fact doubled. I'm still at 150,000.

Nik; are all 193,000 yours?

no, when i bought this car in sept. 2005 it had 135XXX on it
it was well maintained before me, thats what mechanic told me when i took it in for a check up

Jer: The only other guy was the Australian guy from myFordFocus...but he's dropped off the earth. I know Ben posted on FocalJet that he's gone to 200K on his SVT, I think.

Nik: I managed to stop in Aberfoyle. There was no way I was going to shoot & drive, considering there was trace black ice on the highways.

Congrats Richard!

That's a hell of an accomplishment.

Man, and your car still looks great....

I'm betting you can keep that thing running to 500K easy :blink:

Congrats that's quite a feat considering it is focus.

I don't think i'll ever own a car that reaches a mileage that high.

wow congrats Richard, I'm getting up there too with mine I'm at 189,4xx right now..

wow.. congrats!

I've had my new car for 6 months, and just hit 4k... woot!

ALERT!
you need to update your signiture :o

Congratulations on your accomplishment. I was getting worried, reading about everybody getting something else when their cars get up around 150,000 k. I'm hoping this Focus beats my previous Ford products distance record. I had a 95 Escort, I gave to a buddy when it had 415,000 k on it. He drove it for 50,000 more. Does a transmission rebuild, engine rebuild and all four struts count as small repairs? Also had a Buick Regal, it died at 250,000 k.

Nice Richard.

I put 465,000km on my 90 t-bird SC before I finally sold it. Best of luck!

Wow you guys really put on the miles.. I haven't even hit 50,000 on mine yet. Nice to see the Zetec can have a long life though.

Mine is up to about 230000

dang i only put about 3000 on my car but, i got it at 97xxx

Sweet! Im at 230k and beat it up daily synthetic from when it was new I go from oil change to oil change without adding a drop!
