There is a member on the disco3uk site username Character he must be close to 600,000 miles by now. Believe he's on his 3rd transmission and 3rd engine.

464k out of a single engine is pretty darn impressive, IMO. thorgal yours at 156k is also a nice testament to its longevity. My '05 is becoming a baby (is that possible?) as it now has 116,500 miles. The first year I logged a ton of miles, but have slowed down.

Since it's from a UK site it's worth asking: Was Cheracter's original engine petrol or diesel?
I'm on the original compressor at 82K miles. But I have replaced both front hubs, control arms and bushings. And I suspect a drive shaft or the torque converter is on the way out as I feel a hard clunk as I slow to a stop. And I've got some odd sound that sounds like birds chirping at start up before cranking the engine and it happens again just after the engine turns off.
