broken Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 In 1985, I was working in a subaru dealership in N.Y. They had a contest for the most mailage subaru. Winner got new subaru. The last day of contest a 78 subaru came in with 780,348 miles on it. The engine was running great, the body was rusted to nothing. You could see the road through the floor boards.

Jack in Norfolk Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 For some reason I thoght we'd see a lot more cars in the 3 and 400,000 range. I sold mine with 200k on the clock (for twice what I paid ) And that was almost 8 years ago. Didn't burn a drop of oil either. But it had a slow leak on the right valve cover.

heartless Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 .... 78 subaru came in with 780,348 miles on it. The engine was running great, the body was rusted to nothing. You could see the road through the floor boards. This is why I drive a Subaru!!! :banana: i doubt mine will see that many miles before the body gives out, but I know the engine could do it!!

TheApprentice Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 '84 wagon: This was a few months ago. Think I'm closer to 350K now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cd45 Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 1987 GL Wagon, 187,850 miles. The original motor as far as I know. I was given the car by my Brother. I love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maureen Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 This is very encouraging. The mileage on my '98 Outback is almost 150,000. I'm hoping now that I can get at least another 150K miles out of it before I have to trade it in. Or maybe run it out to 800K if like the guy in Europe! It still runs great, except for what seem to me to be frequent seal failures. My husband wants me to trade it in now, but if it's working, why mess with it? I love the way it handles. in 1997 I bought a Toyota 4-Runner and sold it to buy the Subaru. I never felt safe in the 4-runner on curves and it bounced all over the place like a Dodge truck.

subbum Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 My 88 DL Wgn has 196,000 for the moment. All original 'cept for the tranny which I replaced when I bought it. Cool thing is that I spent $850 for it (the car, not the tranny) two years ago and have driven it all over the country on all types of roads (yes, the skid plates do work). I have to get a bigger car soon (kids), but I planning on keeping my soob because it is the coolest car I have ever owned (and my kids would kill me if I sold it).

SuBrat84 Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 200+k on my 94 svx. not many svx up in that teritory...... I just hit 204,000 miles in my 94 svx. It's even the ORIGINAL TRANNY!
