    How many Km's is too many..

    Hey guys, just thinking about what i want when purchasing a mk1.

    Out of all ye who drive mk1's and have in the past:

    How many km's can the average Mk1 do before it craps itself?


    My Mercedese-Benz 230E has confidently smashed past 407,000km's so i have no realistic idea of what is healthy hahahaha.

    Let me know

    I'm restoring one that's done 540,000 km.

    Pretty much everything is worn out mechanically but the rubbers and body are good.

    Mileage doesn't really mean much when the car's this old.

    This is the car and what I've had to do.
