Just wondering.....How many of you have over 200,000 miles on your 850? Our 95 Turbo has 231,200 miles on it and we are going to be taking it on a 3500 mile round trip to South Dakota and back in the next couple of weeks.

 

Sweet!! Me, not yet, but the DD is getting there soon...

Are your coolant hoses all up to date? That's what I worry about on a long trip. Like to replace them every 5-7 years or so just so they don't pop on me in the middle of no-wheres-ville...

 

I have 213,000 and counting fast. I have taken mine on three 1,500+ mile trips this year so far. I have 2 more planned but will likely only take one of them.

+1 on the hoses.

 

Thanks for the tips on the hoses. I replaced them about 4 years ago when I did the timing belt. I'll double check them just to be sure.

 

So anyone besides RSPI and myself have over 200K? I have a hard time believing we are the only two so far. If so, I feel unique!!

 

Ours had about 250,000 0n it when we traded it...

 

I have 217,000 on my V70...

 

Mine has 210,000 kilometres, which is only 130,000 miles.

 

I mentioned this a couple of times already around here somewhere, but I'll mention it again, 224,xxx miles and going to be 225,xxx pretty soon. Just detailed it today along with my parent's new Focus. Had some guy driving a BMW E39 with sports package that was visiting one of the neighbors slowed down and was checking out the cars after they were detailed. Makes me feel proud.

 

My odometer stopped working at 178,000 miles. That was about 18 months ago. Or maybe 2 years, Can't remember. I don't typically drive a lot, but lately I have been. Might be over 200,000 by now or very close. I love my 850. Drives like a dream. Best car I've ever had.

Ciao, 351,XXX km

 

292K +

Looking forward to my 300K sticker.

Odometer broke a year ago so I'm reading mileage off my underhood panel until I get off my dead lazy *** and install the gear package I purchased last year. That and change the instrument lights over to LEDs to match my interior courtesy lights

 

My 850 SW has 200,439 miles and going up !

 

200000mi = 321868.80km

 

I will turn over 280,000 tomorrow going to work. Just changed oil and put on new timing belt,pullies,etc. and serpintine belt. I forgot how much harder it is to do than an S70.

 

210,000...I was so happy until a bicyclist rode into the driver's fender and smashed the fender and dented the hood. Until that moment, the car has been a dream. Now, it looks horrible...I lose about a quart of oil every 500 miles or so...No external leaks.
I have (DIY) done: Radiator, A/C (full dash removal), heater core, CV joints, Alternator, oh...now that I think about it...tons of stuff. Runs like a top, looks ech.. Gotta find a BLACK Driver's fender...unbolt and bolt on.

 

Why didn't the bicylist pay for the fender and hood?

You need to find that oil usage/leak problem. Where is it going?

 

I got this from a friend, he works on Volvo's and had to replace it because the tac stopped working but the car is still strong.

 

7 miles shy of 577K.... WOW!!
