Re: Who has the lowest mileage SVX?

Well, I know low miles tends to add value with collectors cars, which I am convinced the SVX will be, one day.

What I find reassuring is the fact that Tony [desertrunner] has put over 500K kms on his '95, with 445K kms of that on the original engine! That is over 300K miles of exceptionally tough driving in a harsh environment.

To me, that means that the SVX is as tough as old leather, and even with all the whining about bad bearings and failing gearboxes, buying an SVX with 90,000 or 100,000 miles on it, the car is barely run in.

Not too many other cars around with that sort of life and durability.
