Re: Highest Mileage C4 - whose got it? (Muffin)
My 87 Coupe has close to 132,000 miles in it. I'm the fourth owner. First owner was a woman in Florida. Next owner was some guy also in Fl. Third was the guy I bought it from in Puerto Rico. Have changed the following: ECM, both leaf springs, front shocks, alternator six times, starter twice, serpentine belt once, master cylinder-booster-front disks once, brake pads twice, repaired the digital cluster once, MAF once, rear tires twice, front tires once, spark plugs once, ignition module once, power steering once, rack & pinion once, seat covers twice, fuel pump relay once, fuel filter once, left-side rear U-joints once. That's all as far as I remember since I bought it in the year 2000. :lol: :lol: :lol: I eliminated the ABS since it was damaged and the new one costs $1,913.00 in PR. :skep: :nopity

Re: Highest Mileage C4 - whose got it? (tobijohn)
Coming up on 150K in my 87. It is my only car now for over 4 years, so it is daliy driven. I did have a truck for about 3 years of the seven that I have owned the 87, so mileage was low during that time. I also spent a year in Saudi, so no driving during that time. The original owner, my stepfather, only used it on weekends.
