How many miles have you got?

I've been driving my '92 about 500 miles a week for the last seven months, so the miles have really shot up (184K now) and this morning I started wondering what the highest mileage SVX out there had.

So, how many miles do you have on yours? (those of you with multiples, please don't add the totals)

How many of those miles did you put on?

What major components have been replaced?

In general, how are they holding up?

My mileage is in my signature. She's just about to turn over 126,000 miles, 22,000 of which are mine, and the only part I've had fail is the crank pulley (knock wood), and I saw that coming and got a replacement before it let go.

Lots of folks here have logged many more miles.

I drive mine very little and personally put on about 2,500 miles but that was mostly from bringing it back from the seller.

I look at the SVX as a unique automobile, and judging by the weekly crashes posted on the boards, the SVX is attriting with regularity and becoming rarer.

I use another car as a commuter.

My '92 only has about 60K on it. Unfortunately, I haven't put a single mile on it! That soon will change.

When I still had my 94L fwd I bought it with 125k and sold it with 155k in a little more than a year.

My 94 LSI 5mt had 101k when I got it i November 2004 and has 107k now.

I replaced transmissions on both cars and many other random maintenance to keep them in top shape
