DOH I do go through a lot of cars. Toyota Carina E M Reg With Face Lifted Metal grill. The Renalt is the other one that was 180 ish K. Right I paid a little more for that one but not much more I thinlk in the region of £250. DOH.:bang:

Well, it had me fooled, because of the VDO marking at the bottom of the dial. I can't believe that a Toyota would have VDO dials? That just doesn't sound right. Maybe AppleSei would like to find us a pic of a Laguna dashboard? :)

Meanwhile I found http://www.cochesenred.com/espana/toyota-carina-de-1996-en-talarrubias-c3137.html
Oh dear, looks like AppleSei is right anyway :D

When I joined this forum I would never have believed I would see a 200,000 mile Doblo, & definately a non-turbo.

:confused:

Mrs_G's Doblo is a turbo. 1.9 JTD sx.

I knew it was a JTD but mine is a bog standard, I would like to see one of them with 200,000 miles.

What are you on about... all JTD's are the same? :confused: Niall's is just a 'bog standard' van!

Congratulations by the way Niall, that is certainly something worth celebrating for your wife, as I believe this would also be around her first 200,000 miles in this job as she had the Doblo pretty soon after starting :)

Have a drink on me ;)

What I meant to say was mine is a bog standard non turbo.
 
With 200k miles under the belt the next milestone is 250,000 - quarter of a million miles.

Perhaps we could have a sweepstake as to when this will be reached. My guess is 2nd week in April 2007.
