I use tapatalk via my phone it's much easier since photobucket went, unsure what the best photo site is nowadays, maybe imgur?

250000 miles is an amazing achievement.
I'm curious to know how are members cars holding up to these high mileages.Are your engines still strong and are there any petrol ones that have achieved this. Have the cam chains on the diesels started to get rattlely.. What about auto boxes, how have faired.
So many questions but it would be interesting to hear from the owners that have done these remarkable miles.
Mines clocked just over 155k now and I sometimes worry about how much longer it will soldier on for.

Default Moon Mileage

I will refer you to the classic line from Trigger in Only Fools and Horses.


Trigger :- You know what they say Dave

Rodney :- No Trig what?

Trigger :- Look after your Broom.

Rodney :- What, and your broom will look after you ?


No Dave Look after your broom.


Same applies to our cars

Qualification for the moon club is 225,623 miles, that's the closest the moon gets to the earth.

Members are primarily diesels but Flying Banana is a member with his famous Sunspot Yellow petrol 1.8T.
