Mine has 242,000 on it now, I have owned it since it was 12 months old, water pump replaced once and just replaced original radiator, drop oil out of her every 10,000 klm and trany serviced every 80,000 klm as recommended by Holden.
It is the best car I have owned up to date and have no intentions of buying another.

- VR Calais 3.8L Manual
My Calais has 312xxx and ha all the wear and tear.
The engine was replaced by the guy I got her off, it's got about 150xxx on it.
Transmission was original and was going strong.
Service every 2500 km ( hard driving / dirt roads / dodgy fuel )
Leads, filters, plugs, oil etc.

In the feels.
165thou with possibly everything needing to be fixed. Rocker gasket needs to be done. Runs like **** some times. Noisy lifter. I hope it is anyway. I use some oil can't remember the name. Oil change was about 6 months ago and has traveled aprox 200kms?
