![]() When I had my first ZS180 bought it at 13,000 miles in 2004, I sold it with 243,000 miles on it to my son as I wasn't using it any more a few years later.
Was a very reliable engine and couldn't fault it at all with the exception of oil getting into the throttle housing and leaking into the air filter

![]() [QUOTE=Dorchester2;2929488]I've heard about several kv6 2.5 still in good condition which have exceeded 300,000 km (around 190,000 miles) here in France.
Provided it is well cared for and regularly serviced there's no problem at all. Mine is a 193,000 km autobox, drives a treat & in brilliant condition and I hope I'll die before her! ![]() Last edited by PRC ROEWE; 25th April 2022 at 12:46.. Reason: fixed several typos ! |

I fully agree. A regular service that is all about. Moreover mine is garaged & kept dry and safe, bonnet open and battery permanently connected to a automatic charger. BTW I've noticed the place where you're living and I deeply wish you to get out of that ordeal ASAP. ![]()

Yes she's regularly driven once a fortnight at least on good months, and once a month in the bad season, mainly for cruising on medium and long distances. She's so comfy! ![]()
