Posted: **13 Mar 2006 09:39 pm**

340DL -86 333.000km (my no.1, and dad's ex)

360GLi -90 237.000km
360GLi -90 221.0000km (dad's)
343DL -79 235.000km (dad's EX)
360GLT -86 285.000km (friend's)

Then some dead ones of mine:
343DL -79 230K
340DL -83 232K
340DL -83 240K
340GL -86 234K
360GL -87 286K
340GL -88 293K

Then some unofficcial records that i've seen:
340DL -89, 379K B14.4E ORIGINAL ENGINE!!! (a friend of mine's)
Mine made a decent 327K with original B14.4E engine, and VERY GOOD compression after that, 13bar in every cyl.

360GL -85 445K, B200K original engine

360GLi -89 425K B200F original engine also.

It's strange how long theese volvo (and also renault) engines can make in a such car, and arctic country as finland. Here the temp is in winter at -30ºc and in summer +30ºc. Add 10ºc to both if it's extreme.

What could be the highest mileage 300 series car?

Fakes sat doing nowt except town for the past 2 weeks, but I did manage something like 1400 in 3 days a little while ago. 174, nearly 175000 for her

I did miss getting a picture of my B172k at 172000 miles though

Kept meaning to take it.. then one day it was at 173

So i see i'm not the only one who got a 300 that have almost just crossed 100 000 km.. Mine has gone 110 000 km now..

Added 1200 in 7 days to Fake, and if you include the trip to Foggy's and the national, I've done 2000 miles in 14 days. Havn't driven Fake that much really since I got her running, upto 177,000miles nearly. All the time I'm at uni I usually go off sightseeing as much as I can, but the last few months I've been hectic, and havn't been able too
