Default Post Your Odometer Readings
Noticed in the 'main' thread there were a lot of odo reading questions and figures posted... so, why not make a thread for it...

I've been 'collecting' my odometer readings since I bought the car when it had about 53000k's on the clock...

Dan


For all of the 5's, I reset my trip computer so it would come up 55.5 at the same time...


I got the evil 6's on an EFC cruise to Wollongong via the National Park. We pulled up to wait for some stragglers right on 66666!


I don't exactly remember when I hit all 7's.


Got the 8's on my way home from work. Missed out on getting a corresponding trip computer reading though.


The 9's are on their way. I'm currently at about 97900km's.

I've missed all those milestones - my Cougar already had just over 120,000 on it when it came to live with me.

Didn't even think to get 123,456. :

I'm currently at 132,661.
