We often hear about Pajero's that has covered exceptionally high mileage - often with the same engine.

Let's keep a list of the top 20 members' cars in terms of distance covered. If your's is higher than one recorded, reply to the message, and I will update the first post.

When something changed (eg. new engine or 10000 extra km covered), also let us know.

I'm shocked there are only two Gen 1's on this list thus far... 4EPajero, what did you do? That thing should have been able to tac a million miles on it! It's a diesel!

Macjohnw, give it 100 000 km, and you may make it to the board. Although by then #20 will probably be up in the high 300's!
