WOW, whats that in miles? Just shows you what a 3800 is capable of. I had an 86 Regency with 236k miles when it went to the wrecking yard. It actually still ran but a rust bucket because of our winter salt.
400,000 kms is 248548 miles. The car is in excellent condition minus the fact that a month ago someone took a corner to fast and smashed the fender and door, so they are now replaced and purple for hte time being. After winter i'm getting it all painted hopefully
Nice to see others are taking such good care of these cars. I sold my 89 Bonneville LE with 250,000 miles on it to an 18 year old kid. Two summers later he pulled up to a traffic light in it. I'm quite sure it was the same car because I recognized the kid driving it, and it had a unique dent in the rear quarter. I sold it because I thought it was worn out. That car might last forever.
My wife is still driving a 93 Bonneville SE with 293,000. I been saying for three years that as soon as it gives me any trouble were going to replace it. But it just runs like a top. This spring I put new struts ands brakes on it. I figured if it made it this far it might just go to 400,000. It driver as nice as my 98 SSE.
