<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Shark01Racing)</div><div class='quotemain'>(currently have 43,500 miles, and have owned since July 6th, 2003 (yes...20K miles in ONE year) ).</div>
How do you think I racked up almost 100,000 miles in five years?
I did not include maintance items.
Timing belt,
tyres (three sets!)
all belts
coolant
Brake and clutch fluid
front and rear brakes
Air filters
plugs (on fourth set)
Wires.
yadda yadda yadda..
Car is due for another brake job, a reflushing of all fluids, new brake lines (Going braided) and new radiator hoses and a thermostat and waterpump because I am there.

FS: Stock 00-01 Foglamps and fuel pump
My car has 27,800 miles on it which are all mine. I bought the car in 01/26/01 with only 4 miles on it. I changed out the pads when I put the new disc's. I also changed out the belts just because. In july of 02 I had the car re painted at the dealership because the paint was chipping. It was free thank god. Other than that I have had no problems with my car.

I bought it Jan 03 with 165000km and now has 183000km on the clock.
Only brakedown thing I've had is when the clutch bearing fell apart, so I managed to start it in gear and drive it to the shop in 1st (very slow trip with lots of car qued behind me), and got a new clutch put in.
Other than that it has just been service items.
