    I've probably got one of the highest mileage V70's on this forum (I say one of the highest, not necessarily THE highest).

    As it stands today, 05/03/2013 (before my drive to work), my mileage is 238,389 miles! Volvo V70 T5 (2001). Original engine, full Volvo service history up to about 200,000 (approx).

    Oh, and the proof (just in case)....

    It might be a few more than that but its not 50k yet.
    And i dont think its fair that the low milers are at the bottom
    My last Import prelude was a 92 J plate and that only had 63k on the clock.

    Anyone can park a car up for years then use it to keep the mileage low, but to keep a car going at nearly 240,000 miles takes some doing.
