Low Mileage Trophy's ?

[indy]

Interested to know how many low mileage cars are left out there.

Saw Asim's on here (25k) in the for sale section, just wondering how many more there are! and what current guise they are in (100% standard, lightly modded, highly modded?)

Seem to be a very rare breed, I keep an eye on the for sale posts and the pistonheads section, most seem to have over 40k miles (not that mileage is a bad thing )

hoolio's is very low IIRC.

100k here

^^^ still looks like new too. Mine is on 65k which seems to be the average from most I've seen for sale.

 

[Trophy#110]

41k here though it does almost nothing. Had 36.5k when I got it 2 years ago!

 

[Sir_Dave]

100k here

185k here

24,865 today.
They need mileage apparently. Some of the strongest engines have over 100,000 on them if you believe what you hear.

At about 5,500 miles per year, it will be a good while yet!
The engines seem indestructible. It's a keeper so I bought a very low mileage one in the hope it hadn't been messed with too much (and it hadn't) and it has served me without fault for two years, so fingers crossed.

Mine has just crossed 75,000 today. Done just over 40,000 in over 2 and a half years and i'm hopefully now winding that down a bit.

Mine is on 52,000 now after I've put 26,000 on it in 2 1/2 years. I've enjoyed every one of those miles and plan on doing many more as that's what the car was built for.

It is indeed

 

[keo]

Mine is on 43k doing aprox 5k a year now

 

[indy]

It is indeed

how low!
and any recent pics?

 

[aucky]

I'm on 63k but my mileage has dropped significantly now.

It's also garaged now, wish it could've always been that way

Just clicked over 15k which is not necessarily a good thing, as others have said these engines seem to need the miles and it's still as tight as a nuns knickers.

Does anyone have any idea how many miles are on #001 that Renault UK owns? Does it even get used or is it trailered to/from any event where it's displayed? I should have asked when I saw it at the PistonHeads Sunday Service a few weeks ago.

 

[indy]

no idea! but saw #2 for sale here

 

[Jon.G]

002 is trailered everywhere as far as I know.

It travels inside a huge Renault lorry together with a Clio V6, a Williams, R5 etc. All of them seriel #001.
