thought some of you might find this an interesting read

I think the highest mileage car was an old Volvo P1800 with something like 3million miles which is 4 times that of this Capri, you also have to be a bit skeptical when he says he keeps a little book him self

3 million? now that does sound a little sceptical, reckon in another 20 or 30 years we'l say any of today's car with such a mileage?

There was a Honda with 1million on the clock online around christmas. Was in America or somewhere I think, for an insurance loss adjust who does 60k a year, and Honda gave him a new Honda for free to celebrate.

and that mileage has been completed all since 1966 and by only one owner who has had the car from new. he has even driven it to the factory it was built in, in Sweden bearing in mind the owner lives in America

I wonder if Fiat would do that if I managed that in a Grande Punto?

Would you want to do a million miles in a Punto though?
