How Many Miles on your 2006 C230?

I have 31,785 miles in 11 months.

Anyone beat that?

Scott

PS...still on original OEM front tires, original brake pads, replaced rear tires at B level service, I get 31.6 mpg on the highway, the car is doing great.

About 11,500. I've had it since 10/05.


I'd like it less, but with southern california requiring you to drive anywhere and everywhere (public transportation sucks) that about sums it up.

The car is a company car and my two accounts are about a 700 mile roundtrip from where I live...you do that once a week for about 11 months and you have 31,000 miles. Plus a couple of trips to MI and FL. It is by far the most comfortable car I have ever driven. But the Sirius is the ticket.

Scott

PS.....44 weeks X 700 miles = 30,800 miles

I got mine October 05.

Currently at 21K. New front brakes and rotors. Still on original OEM tires. I get 32 hwy miles. Knock on wood, no problems with the car.

I used to have a 1996 C220 (4 cyl) and put in 150K miles with just basic oil change and scheduled maintenance.

God I love these cars.

My gas sipping C-Class
I got all of you beat!

November of 05 delivery date and I just hit 110,000 miles....

On the way home from work last night (57 miles) I averaged 35.1 mpg and 66 mph..........I'm do for another set of rears and front brak pads and rotors (this will be my second set of rotors up front) I've lost count on the tires though.....

I took the car out and autox'd it a few months ago and finished 1st in class against an A4, Cooper-S, Acura CL-S and a few other cars.....

It's been a pretty good car so far, and I plan on keeping it for another 100k, but I will be buying a second car for around town stuff......
