Hi everyone,

The Cordia has travelled over 200,000km with me.

 

I decided to run up the kilometres in style doing the Russell coast road.

 

I can't tell you what the name of the bay was where I clocked up 248,006 km but it was a nice trendy one down from Russell.

 

Has anyone else done more than 200,000km in their Cordia?

 

cheers

 

Wayne

I would like to be able to  afford driving it a lot more.

 

But at least I have done a bit of driving.

 

You never know,one day I might sell my house and do New Zealand proper.Maybe even drive it in England.Our family went over to the UK in 2003 to visit my brother who was primary school teaching in East London.That would be cool.

It is Easter Sunday as I type.

The weather is beautiful.

I did a loop this morning. As I was driving I saw the odometer roll over 254,000km.Parked in the shed the odometer reads 254,019.1km.

 

So I have done over 206,000km since I bought the car Thursday the 16th of April , 1998.

I am so glad I decided to keep the cordia.

When I read the British car magazine Classic and Sports Car I love reading about a guy who has a BMW 2002tii. He is always spending money on his car. He drives it heaps. I could relate to him back in the day when I was driving heaps.

How is everyone?

 

cheers
