My 1998 S70R has finally got to the 100k mark, so just about run in. lol
Decent mileage for a 12 year old volvo. Was hoping to keep it relatively low mileage, but now i'v lost my lift to work everyday, its starting to climb a bit (as are the fuel costs).

Still, its running a1 and you could almost balance a coin on the engine!
Heres to another 100k.

I'd like to get a cheap runaround to use for work and stuff to try and keep it relatively low mileage, but don't think i can afford it at the min.

I need to get a better job. lol

lol mine a few days ago passed the 200k mark

why would you want to keep it low mileage? the more it goes up the more it's being driven and enjoyed by you

The cars wasted on driving to work, shops, etc, so its just costing me lots in v-power.
I'd like to get a sh*t car for the crap journeys and i won't have to worry about numpties scratching/denting it in carparks and stuff.

Ill second that. Unless of course you are commuting silly miles to work everyday. Luckily work pays for my travelling costs to and from work which is a good job as 200 miles a day in the T-5 is expensive!

Works not far at all, only 20 miles there and back, just that it takes my mileage a week up from around 150miles to 300 (depending on how many days i work).
Most of my miles before where just for enjoyment or seeing people.
