Mileage record?
 
I was wondering if there is any official or unofficial high mileage record here for a Bonneville...I was just curious. :)

At one point there was a guy with a 96 Bonnie with 330,000 miles and still going... No idea what happened to him..

A guy I've worked with said he had one that had over 330,000 when he got rid of it. I don't know what year it was but I think it was an SSEi.

vital49 10-27-2005 08:09 AM

There was a guy who used to hang out here who had a 96 SE with 340,000 when he retired it.

There's also the guy from Grand Rapids who sold his 92 SE with 380,000 on the original motor.

ChaseSmith 10-27-2005 11:44 AM

I've got 302,500 on my 96 SE.

That may be true on the mechanical ODO. Is it true for the digital?
