Who has driven their VR4 the most?

[TME_Steve]

Today, I reached a milestone in my relationship with my VR4, I racked up 100,000km of driving with it....

This started me wondering, have I driven my VR4 more than anyone else has driven theirs in this country? I know our Mr Panther drove his beloved Grandpa a fair wack and got an odometer reading of 250k or something before passing it on, but has anyone else got serious about driving theirs a lot? And Mr Panther, ho many km's of that 250 or whatevere it was did you do?

Also on that topic, apart from Grandpa, who has the highest odometer reading? Mine is now 202,000 ish, I'm again guessing this is fairly significant from all the car's I've seen.... I think Jungle has more but that's about it?

Mine has done about 151,000kms!

I did 100,000kms in the 2 years I owned Grandpa, then another 27,000kms in the 3.5 years I owned the Super.

The time span I was driving during the time I owned Grandpa was also shared with a Mazda 929, so could have been even higher lol if I only owned the Legnum.

I remember Dimi's old car was about 175,000kms (?) when he sold his, & Christian on here is getting pretty high too now.

ooh, so i could be the highest kms driven in one VR4! What was the odo on Grandpa when you sold it?

Get some time up young man. #599 Back in April, she's now got 206700km. Bought her with 72000 on the clock so i guess 134000km in 4.5 years

Total, I have done about about 70,000k's in a vr4. Only a baby

 

[tails]

I bought mine in August 2007 with 70,000 on the clock. I'm only up to 108,000 so that's only 38,000 in the last 5 years.... I think I need to drive more :blush:

I bought mine in Feb 08 with 71000 and it now has roughly 105000.

I'm in the same league as you Jarrad, represent!

 

[Lasiorhinus]

Wow. I bought mine eighteen months ago with 42,000km, and now its got 65,000.

 

[king_panther]

Grandpa is currently around the 250,000km mark. The owner was selling it. Not sure what has happened since then...

Bradc mentioned there was one in the UK over the 300,000km figure. Challenge accepted Steve ?

 

[TME_Steve]

Sure.... I can't see me selling it in the near future, saving for too many other fun things

Mine has done about 151,000kms!

Good thing you qualified the question with "in this country"

Had my first VR-4 in 2004 (now on 4th) so have had plenty of time to rack up the kilometres. Don't have a solid figure but it is getting up there.

$10 for the first VR4 owner to enter the Volvo club

$10 for the first VR4 owner to enter the Volvo club

Who's paying? My first car was a Volvo.

You've got some way to go though Steve
