Happy Birthday to LA05BMY!
« on: January 23, 2016, 05:51:18 PM »

100k surpassed! Time to celebrate for the silver trid and black panelled Passion :) Better get on the service checks!

Had it since 36k and been extremely pleased (family previous owner)  Only issues so far TVA occasionally gets sticky and the gear linkage ceased up at about 85k.  Both fairly easy fixes thanks to forfour.co.uk.
Fingers crossed for the future, and maybe see another 50k?  What is the highest mileage forfour here?  8)

my 1.1 was at 133,000 miles when i sold it. it was still on its original clutch as far as i was aware and original shockers. the plan was to keep it but my 1.5 came up and was given a kick up the back side to buy it by JJ

im looking forward to getting my 1.5 up to 100,000 miles and beyond. got it with 83,000 miles on the 21st november and its now at 85,400 miles so another 15,600 miles to go.

i know its not a forfour but my uncles 2006/06 civic diesel has done 204,000 miles, in that time its had 1 shocker at 190,000 miles and a clutch at 195,000 miles. the clutch was the original, supposed 'weak' clutch which was fitted to early civic diesels.

G'day Bugsy,
Congrats with the 100k miles on your Forfour, hope you get a lot more miles on the teller without any problems.
I bought mine in december 2014 with 76000km on the teller and is now just over 90000km.
They are great cars , and i allways look forward driving her.
Good luck with the Forfour
Greetings,
Eddie.
