It really demonstrates how good the Japanese are at making cars. They drive better then Holdens and Fords any day of the week with the equivalent amount of k's.

    i personally think cars should have hour meters like boats. would give us a much more accurate reading of a cars history...
    Because you can have a car that has been driven on the highway most of its life like mine with 167,000kms, or you can have a car thats done mostly city driving smashing through 1st, 2nd, 3rd gear with 167,000kms on the clock...... quite misleading.

    I expect my car to at the very bottom of the page on carsales when i come to sell it next year, however i still believe that my euro is as good as a car as one thats done 100,000 kms. purely because of Maintenance, serviced every 10,000kms by my mechanic who i trust, and the only problem i had with the car was the foot throttle cable was not reading properly into the throttle sensor which i had to get replaced at about 205,000. cost $300 fitted (from a wreck). Whoever buys my car will be very happy with their purchase, So basically a 100,000km euro is only a baby and should be good for another 200,000 . i hope mine is!!!!

    Take care of the car, and it will take care of you. and Enjoy!!!! EURO'S ROCK!
    WOw seems like the engine will go around 300,000km without needing a redbuid. We hope our CU2 would be the same can achieve 200,000+kms...

    I think people get caught up in the needs a rebuild hype - engines arnt that shit. They CAN last a long time with proper maintenance. Like that volvo i talked about earlier - 740,000kms!

    They certainly do Type R, but you need to consider that most of there driving is done with everything at operating temp, very few cold starts. but in that million km they usually go through 2 or 3 auto transmissions as well as head gaskets which falcons are notorious for, as well as many other repairs.

    I can understand the auto's flogging out. Cars are going to break no matter how many kms. But there is less chance of them doing this when they are new.

    But back to the orginal question - yes it is harder to sell your car once it has crossed 100kms - not because of cars being faulty at that many kms, but its just peoples perception.

    All black CL9 before 07 comes with beige/tan interrior. Only after 2007, you can have the option of black or beige/tan.

    As many have pointed out, the condition of the car and how it has been maintained/looked after is much more important than the kilometers on the dash.
