nearly on 190000kms and the car has never missed a beat in 2 years of ownership. regular oil & filter changes are the key to the long life of the 4e.

I read a story of a toyota hilux in the states that hit a million miles and all that needed changing were the seats they wore out.

Neither of my Seras are that impressive (last one was written off at 159,000kms) But there was an owner in singapore whose Sera had 400,000kms on the clock and was running well...

some impressive figures so far, thanks for the replies. I know when comparing EP's to other hatchbacks we often hear "the build quality is far superior to the starlet"... Given the massive mileage you can rack up on these things I would say the build quality of the interior is not very luxurious but it certainly stands the test of time.

EDIT: that carina is impressive. My father had a carina II back in the day. It lugged trailers and people around for years before finally being abandoned at the bottom of our garden. A lad was in delivering stuff one day and say it. He asked my father about it and said "if its driving ill buy it off you". The car had been laying up for about 6 or 7 years. They poured a drop of diesel in to it attached some jump leads and it started on the first turn and he drove it away that day, some machines!

Just coming up to 71000km. Previous owner had it as a sunny weather toy for 5 years, all paperwork present to back it up. Think it had about 60500km on it when I bought it in November last year.

i think that the big deal with mine is not just that its 190000kms, its modified and it gets driven hard almost daily, goes through way more stress than a well looked after and driven like ure granny type of car, and it just loves it all day long, however dont think its gonna be years til it needs a rebuild
