So, I have decided to keep a log of my cars Miles and let everyone know how many miles I put on, where I go, ect. I will update it everyday, til I reach a 100k miles. I will be using my 2002 cooper since it is my daily driver. Right now it stands at 36,668 miles. Ill take a picture in a few to show this.
Thanks Everyone!
MOTOR ON!

 

ur slacking...10 days and no update

 

hmmm I should do one of these I've got photos from 200 up to 44k so far.....

 

sorry I haven't posted in awhile. I am now at 37,035 miles. Ill try to take some picutres tonight. I have been busy with school and work.

 

I just realized how far behind I am. I have drove my mini in a few days. Im currently at 37,321 miles. only about 62k to go!

 

Keep on goin'

@ 50k I'll start to count.

 

I think this is going to make your 100k the longest freakin 100k ever! It's like watching a pot of water waiting for it to boil. If it makes things more enjoyable to you though, by all means share it with us.
Power to the MINI!

 

just hit 38,500 tonight!

 

This is going to take a while...

 

I picked up my 04 MCS in November 2003 and just turned over 99,000!
Jim

 

Congratulations on the 99k and the 38.5k respectively!

Power to the MINI!

 

Congrats Jim! I still have a long way to go. Ill get there though.

 

I just hit 41k tonight. I promise Ill try to hit it within' the next couple years! =)

 

Update bump.

 

currently at 46,530 =)

Needs servicing soon.

 

Careful, everything fails at 46,540...



Just kidding! Motor on!

dan

 

with my luck it will hahaha

 

I'm looking at a high-mileage mini and trying to figure out how much they seem to run to...

Hmm... I seem to have lost track of survey tools, but I'll propose some scenarios, and you chime in with your own or what you think matches.

Are they just so cute that nobody has driven past a hundred grand yet?

Are they incredibly robust, but its only the internet illiterate crowd that has had time to Motor on up to 100,000?

Are they polluted by some Ford gene and quit fairly rapidly?

Are they so new to North America that I am looking on the wrong forum?

 

There is plenty of people on here that have had a mini passed 100k. Some have had 2 mini's past a 100k. Just do a search. They seam to be pretty durable. (knock on wood) I wouldn't even come close to comparing it to a ford (Found on Road Dead) Look at the 1st. Gen Problems and Issues forum to get an idea of some of the problems. As long as you get a high mileage mini that someone has taken care of, you shouldn't have a problem. Good Luck

Update: Half Way There 51,850

 

I personally know of a MINI that has surpasssed 150k and it's being autocrossed every month and has been autocrossed every month for years. It still gets taken very good care of though.
Cheers to the MINI!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Keep it up - You'll get there

Nik

 

You are not in the wrong forum.I agree they are very robust and I'm somewhat literate.No bad genes in any of my past MINI's(or current).Did I mention I've logged just shy of 300K trouble free(no BS) miles since 2003? Oh I forgot it's in my sig.

Motor On!

 

No one has posted in here in awhile and i ran accross it so i figured i would make it feel more homely. I have just over 1 00 miles away from 100Kand will probably make it there by tomorrow so many miles! ahhhh

 

Whoa! Always good to see a Cooper making it I still have quite a few miles to motor to reach that level.

 

Haha thanks, When i got to work today it read 100,070, or something close to that. Its getting up there
