Amazing 100,000 mile coincidence

[Dereck]

Hi Guys

As I pulled into the shop Saturday morning to do some servicing to my Marauder rolled 100,000 miles :)

Ended up changing all the fluids and filters, put a drain plug in my transmission pan and replaced the PCV valve/hose assembly

Good stuff, keep it up! I just rolled 94K a week ago.

Welcome to the leading 1 club, Dereck. That happened to me last year and now I'm at 116.000 doing too many miles since I put mine into daily duty.

Hi MG Driver

At an average of four thousand miles a year I guess I am not going to catch you up anytime soon :D

Does that include the Marauderville trip to Germany? Surely that's at least another thousand miles there. ;)

I'm confused. What's the coincidence?

The last couple years my annual mileage has been boosted a little by my Mad Burger runs to Germany :D


Hi Crouse

The coincidence is that I should pull onto my lift to do a 100,000 mile service at the exact time the odometer rolls to 100,000 miles.

Hi MG Driver

After having sold my Audi last week the Marauder is my only running car at the moment and I do a lot of road trips so its mileage is going to be boosted massively this year.

Took it down to Austria and Switzerland last month, will be driving it up to Denmark next week and then next month it'll be going over to Poland and the Czech Republic with me.

While Gordon (WPG Merc) probably has the Marauder that has visited the most states, Marvin you surely have the Marauder that has visited the most countries. :D

[MGDriver]

Well I can definitely say it has visited 14 countries thus far: USA, Canada, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, France, England, Luxembourg, Poland, Czech Republic, Austria, Switzerland, the Principality of Liechtenstein and Denmark so you could actually say it's seen one country for every year of its age.

However I'm already its third European owner so I wonder where the previous owners may have taken it. I'm still planning to take it to Italy and San Marino as well as Ireland, Scotland and Wales next year.
