Renaultsport Clio 182
it probably comes close but not sure if it's the highest. There's a guy on RS.co.uk that's got a Cup that's done over 100k too but not sure on exact mileage
Renaultsport Clio 182
There's also a Ph1 Exclusive (v. rare) for sale in a garage by me and that's got over 118k on the clock
I bought my cup from a girl who really could clock miles, so she started this..
She did 40k in one year, and looking through the paperwork actually managed to do 12,000 miles in just over 2 months between the service and mot!
Work it out, thats 200 a day!
I have added a further 30k of motorway onto that so its prob done 70k worth of easy miles!
Suspension still feels tight, and engine is nicely loosened up.
Still leading then...

I used to worry about putting miles on my cars, and I have had some nice ones in my time. But as I got older I dont care anymore.
Accept that when you sell it, it will be worthless. And just use the thing.
100k was the milestone, but I passed that with ease and nothing fell off, its still running great, so lets just pile em on.
170k seems like quite a lot for a petrol, so thats my next target ;o)

I've a 2001 ph1 on 91,000k.
My cars are bought to be driven. Average of about 20k a year. If people want to sit there and cry about putting mileage up on their car then so be it. I prefer to use the car.
I was considering selling and buying an M3 but I may hold onto the Clio for another year and then with the mileage at circa 110k realistically evaluate what it will be worth and decide whether to go the track car route or not.
I'm always more dubious of very low mileage cars with a few years on the clock come repurchase time. It's always in the back of my mind that the car has been clocked or quite obviously, been sitting around for a long time. I know of a ph1 with 30k on the clock. Sub 4k a year. Whats the point.
