I'm starting to think that adding about 70,000Klms to a car in 18 months might be a little excessively high :
ohhhhhhh wellllllll : |

ef fairmont big 4L 196000km bought it back in 2001 when it had 128000km's on the clock.
Motor and trans all original. think i will have to get the auto looked at soon. when she drops back into second at about 100kmph it sends a bit vibration through the trans for some reason!

my EF Futura, 4.0L I6: 145200km, owned it a couple of weeks, been regoed 2 days, done 300km.
my dad's EF Futura, also 4.0L I6: ~167000km, owned it 18 months, done just under 30,000km. I have a feeling the k's on mine aren't genuine (dash isn't original), but it's just had the HG done, and it doesn't look like it's done enough k's to have been it's second, so I think it's actual mileage wouldn't be a lot higher, maybe 170,000 or so.
