Haven't replaced the horse in my engine yet, hopefully it last's a little while longer.

VS-II Esteem
I've got 233,000Km's on my VS-II Esteem since new. 1 change of tyres, 3 sets of brake pads, 2 new water pumps, and on the second set of pulleys. OEM battery's on its way out as it's starting to lose charge and am currently doing the biggest mod to it yet. Installing VX commodore calipers/rotors and master unit to the front. Front wheel bearings are due and is due for another service. Recently killed the eurovox tape player for a sony cd/dvd unit. Still goes great and will kick you back on your seat when full throttling it, although it rarely gets hooned.

Hopefully i'll have the old girl for another 200,000Km's.

VZ Holden Commodore Acclaim.
My VR 5L I bought 2 years ago had 213k (total motor rebuild at 206k), The odometer stopped working last month at 242k. Since Ive had it I have replaced the Power Steering Pump, Wiper Mechanism, LPG Relays, Exhaust. Had the usual 5000km service at every 5000km, also just had all belts replaced, also flushed the cooling system and brakes. Replaced due to lowering, the shockies and springs. Most of the stuff I have done has been the consumables on the car and the extras are because Ive wanted it to look and sound better.
