300,000 km as of yesterday

Post by mikeetown »

I reached the 300,000 km mark on my mx-3 GS yesterday. Celebration!!! haha. The only thing wring with it is the front lip is damaged (as usual). So, its pretty much a mint mx-3 with working A/C.

I"m about to pass 320k. about 20 of that on the ZE. Everyone is very suprised when I tell them that I have over 300k on the Purple Beast. It's a good feeling.

Great job guys !\

We had a Dutch woman asking at our Forum if it was worth while to change the timing belt on her 340.000km k8.

Of course with some help of one of the members it is replaced for a reasonable price and still going strong again !
Just another Mx3 freak :)
