387,640 miles
« on: May 05, 2018, 02:18:14 PM »
 "shooting for 400,000" says the owner.
"Struts have seized, instument lights are history - paint [applied by grade school art class] may be all that's holding it together",he says.

He only drives a few blocks from house to town center.

He has 6 or 7 more, when this one perishes. All the same  - only one other is art painted.

He's rather a skilled, retired,  mechanic. Owns a mint 1951 BMW w/sidecar, a '30's tow truck & a Red Honda Reflex.....and those 7 Toyota Estate wagons.

A friend of mine has one of those, he's a potter and uses  it to haul his wares. It is in about the same condition and about 250,000 miles.

Amazing wagons. My other half's car is an old Toyota - 1L engine and 160K miles.

That's my wagon! Mine is an '89 with only 120K miles, barely broke in. Everything works perfectly: the A/C has never been recharged, still blows icy cold. Gotta love Toyotas.
