I haven't paid much attention to the C4 forums -- have you had to do any major work to it at all?
Hmm.... I bought the car 4/2000 with 98.5k on it. So far the "major" things that I have replaced have been....
1. Main Catalytic Convertor
2. U-Joints
3. Two Alternators
4. AC Condensor
5. Distributor Gear
6. Miscellaneous bolt sticking out of the oilpan. :D
Basically stuff I would expect to go with age. If I forgot anything, I'm sure these guys will fill it in for me. :)

Hehe :)
You think that's bad. I've got a
video of my car turning 10,000 miles (yes that is TEN thousand miles)! Then I of course have several still pics of 9999 and 10000 on the odometer.
I'm a little crazy over my car :) I love it so much :D :D
:chevy :seeya
Congratulations Scorp! 150k and still goin'!

Congrats Scorp. I am hoping to get the 200,000 mile rollover on film. The way you're going I know you are going to catch up.
