hi guys, getting consirned with my mileage, is 100k on a 96 1.1, everything runs fine, a bit noisey on tick over but no probs touch wood except that, prob is, i have got alot of mods and am just completing a body kit, do you think it will last a few more years?!

i've done 110k on a 98 vtr. still runs fine. just adjust the tappets and change the oil/filters regularly and it should last a while more.

dunno mate. suppose it depends on factors such as how you drive, level of maintenance etc.

mine says 72k on the clock but the engine has done 60k, would like to have the clocks adjusted for this.
