I had a 96 EF ex-taxi that was 4 years old and had 570000 on it when i got it. Had it for 4 years no problems at all and i flogged it and when i sold it when i moved to bris it had 670000 on the clock still going strong. And my brother had an EB wit hwell over 700000 on the clock and that got flogged he sold it about 3 or 4 years ago and he still see's it driving around in Cairns from time to time so should be good for over 800000 by now.
