Highest mileage SVT?

Not the highest by any means... Just flipped over 111,111 last Friday. :cool:
Recently installed all new front end components, and l feel like I just bought a new car.

Dang JIM! I have 165k on my 2k svt. Original clutch, fuel pump, alternator, trans, & motor.
 
106,000 on my 2000 SVT...had 166k on my SE and before that 148,000 on my Contour 4 cylinder...really never any issues at all..no water pump issues, nothin'!
 
My SVT is at 215 XXXkms.
The 2.5 blew at around 195xxx and the 1st 3L went at 205xxx...
haha
mostly my fault, No doubt in my mind, if i was nicer to my car (and checked the oil after racing it all day..doh, and a bad misshift on the 1st 3L) It would still be going stong...

Ive pretty much destroyed and rebuild the car.
on my 3rd clutch, all bearings, all ball joints, tons of tires, bent rim, rad, rad fan, all sensors, needs control arms, last week tranny was replaced and a axel/cv joint

haha.
 
200,500
original clutch
original fuel filter and pump
original water pump
one heli coil....
one car I still love to pieces....

OH crap! :shocked: I was really worried 'cause mine's got 75K on it and I was hoping to get to 100K... My old Tempo made it to 121K, but I put in a new clutch at 85 and new wheel bearings (yeah, they failed within days of each other) around 90 (along with new alternator, fp, etc. etc. earlier).

They must be making these things better, but I do miss the old Tempo occasionally. :cry:
 
I just turned over 214,000 miles on a 2000 SVT...nothing is original but it runs good...last thing that happened was the throttle cable snapped gettin' on the highway...haha! $10 JY fix
