major milestone - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

R80TER · 02-17-2011, 05:07 AM

hit the big 100k today, got me thinking, what is the highest mileage E9* on the forum? i expect there will not be loads, probably not many people do serious mileage...

show me what you have got!!
And yes, i have still not fixed the thermostat thing to get it running hotter, so i am currently averaging about 37mpg!!

zltm089 · 02-17-2011, 05:09 AM

half of that!

335diesel · 02-17-2011, 05:10 AM

31k, 56 reg - possible contender for lowest mileage per year?!

335diesel · 02-17-2011, 05:23 AM

Oh well - worth a try!

JLR1969 · 02-17-2011, 05:24 AM

My car is just 3 years old and has 16,006 miles. 5335 miles a year.

Waste of a good car really.

MEGA · 02-17-2011, 05:25 AM

66k '06 plate.

I've had it since Jan 09 and bought it with 34k so I've done 14,700 miles per year..
Bit shocking when I think about it like that!!

R80TER · 02-17-2011, 05:27 AM

well mine is was registered dec 05. i bought it in April 09 with 39k on it. so in under 2 years, i have put 61k on it!!

MEGA · 02-17-2011, 05:31 AM

Serious mileage that!

edowen · 02-17-2011, 05:33 AM

R80TER · 02-17-2011, 05:39 AM

oh i bet there are 200k+ mile ones out there, but i think enthusiast cars (ie people here) are typically much lower, as we have seen above. its quite rare i think, that people like me own, mod, talk geek about etc their "company car"

335diesel · 02-17-2011, 05:51 AM

My Dad's old mk3 GTi was 5 years old when he bought it and had 7k miles on it! It was actually pretty bad news - quite a few bits had perished/died and needed replacing. My higher mile one (we both had mk3 GTi 16vs at the same time as did my Mum!!) was a lot more reliable.

Wonder if there are any 200K + E9*s around?

kaishang · 02-17-2011, 06:01 AM

I got mine in July last year and already has 12,000 miles on it....

May go for a drive to the Norwegian arctic circle in summer arctic circle so that could make it 20,000 private miles in a year....

I am sure I saw your car coming out of the industrial estate in Marlow a while back, would have been about 5pm. I was on the MTB.

you prob would have, i used to work for a company there at globe park.. and sounds like me leaving 30 mins early too!! ;-)

dxb335d · 02-17-2011, 03:35 PM

My old man once did 240/250 odd k on a E39

so possible there is some high mileage early E9x floating about as some 6 year old now

NickP · 02-17-2011, 03:52 PM

Mines an 06 plate with 33k on it, it had 19k on it when I bought it last May....

pjs · 02-17-2011, 04:50 PM

I put 90k on my 2006 330d in 3 years, current 335i now on 59k (had 25k on when bought in Oct 2009). They wear the miles very well.

Shame we can't say the same about you Paul

I've put 18k miles on mine in the last year

Rochdale Pioneers · 02-17-2011, 05:10 PM

I've also just passed 100k. A week starts for me on a Monday, and week to date I've done nearly 1,100 miles with about another 800 to go before the end of the weekend!

hmi1750 · 02-17-2011, 05:55 PM

well done! Mine is on 72K 2006 car, I bought it with 11K approx.

What is the display showing on your car? mine doesn't show all those small numbers and temp like that.
