100,000 mile club

My clocks only read to 99,999 miles, so I can't join your club :(

I suspect, although can't prove it, that its been 'round clocks at least once in the past 39 years

Aww - I feel sorry for you :(. This is after all a very special club with major privileges for members. Tell you what - if you take a photo of the clock reading 99,999, with some miles on the trip counter taking you over the 100,000, and with Hovis for authenticity verification, we'll let you in :).

Not had to change anything major yet.... (I've had it since December & don't do many miles in it)

I'll keep it until it goes bang in a major way or I find the e38 that eludes me.
