2000 DU 1 LTD just clicked over 110,000
Dirty Harry, if you don't get 200,000 out of yours I'd be damned supprised, have seen plenty of AU cabs getting around with 500,000+ and still on the original engine... Wonder how many VS/VT commodes could say the same... not too many I'd think

AU II XR8 227,000 - 180,000 were highway k's in NSW.
Mechanic says it is just as good as his 60,...k AUII XR6 ute.
Only problems were harmonic balancer (common) & power steering hose (common).
And can still pull a 14.6...down the 1/4.

My Au2 S has done 84,000kms.

It will get little usage again starting next month, as I buy my brothers '93 Mazda 3 for my daily driver.
